What this example does

Monitoring integration: Example assertion severity critical. Shows how to report checks to existing operational monitoring.

Checks and behavior

  • Sends an GET request to https://example.com/health.
  • Checks allowed/denied HTTP status codes.
  • Looks for expected response content and/or rejects known error markers.
  • TLS settings cover certificate trust.
  • Formats results for nagios output.

Adapt example domains, addresses, credentials and thresholds to your environment before use.
