healthcheck
System status verification
A healthcheck is a routine assessment to verify something is functioning properly.
In medicine, it's a general examination when you're not specifically ill: I scheduled my annual healthcheck.
In computing, healthchecks are automated tests that monitor whether services or systems are running correctly: The server failed its healthcheck and was automatically restarted.
Also spelled health check.
