Checked, examined (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tested

This clue is a double definition.

'checked' is the first definition.
('test' can be a synonym of 'check')

'examined' is the second definition.
(testing is a kind of examining)

(Other definitions for tested that I've seen before include "Proven" , "In repose" , "Subjected to examination, put through paces" , "Examined for quality or reliability" , "critically examined" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
