4. Verify Operability
First of all, you need to check the application version and status. The version check will confirm the exact version of the application that you are running. The status check will provide you the health statuses of the main application engines: Spell Check, Grammar, Thesaurus. In addition to the version and status checks, you have to ensure that integrated spell/grammar checking functionality works properly in your web-system after the migration. Go to your web-system and check the controls where you expect to have spell/grammar checking.
