MonitorTest is an LCD monitor testing and diagnostic tool. It carries out several tests that should allow you to diagnose any potential problems with your LCD monitor. The application automatically detects your screen settings and monitor information, and displays it. It also carries out the test accordingly.
When you start the tests, the application will go to full-screen and show you a variety of things. The first few tests make the screen completely black, white, red, blue, and green, to determine the monitor's ability to display color, I believe. After that there are scaled colors, from black to green and black to red, for example. If your monitor is working well, you shouldn't see any marked changes in color. The last few tests are designed for touch screens. One of them has you drawing along a line, to test the accuracy of the touch panel. Obviously, those tests do not apply to regular LCD screens.
The application supports scripting, which allows you to combine different tests with different resolutions and screen modes. There is also support for multi-monitor setups.
