"make check" is part of the GNU Coding Standards. See:
* https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Standard-Targets.html#Standard-Targets
* https://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/html_node/Standard-Targets.html#Standard-Targets
* https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Standard-Targets.html#Standard-Targets
So IMHO an alias (instead of renaming "check" to "test") would be better.
