"make check" is part of the GNU Coding Standards.  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.
