Checks
A Check is a runtime test to make sure something is working well. Checks can be used for a variety of purposes including:
- configuration checks
- security checks
- performance checks
- health checks
Moodle has had various types of checks for a long time but in 3.9 they were unified under a single Check API and allowed to extended cleanly by plugins in a variety of ways.
