See: Maybe it should be changed to conform to the rest of the world, making it intuitive at the same time. IMHO the name should reveal its intent and "check" doesn't tell what is it checking (maybe whether environment is ready for compilation?). "make test" is understandable and intuitive, especially to anyone who has any experience building software in other environments.
