self-diagnostic
Automated fault detection
Self-diagnostic describes the ability to examine and identify problems within oneself or itself.
A self-diagnostic test in medicine helps patients assess their own symptoms: The website offers a self-diagnostic questionnaire for anxiety.
In computing and machinery, self-diagnostic refers to built-in systems that detect malfunctions: The printer ran a self-diagnostic and identified the paper jam.
The word applies equally to introspection and automated troubleshooting.
