The standard test can run any single request test required and is a major upgrade on the existing URL ping test. It has the reactive SSL check but also a proactive SSL certificate check. You can set a time period before a certificate expires to be alerted that it will need to be updated. The standard test also has a dedicated configuration section for more advanced tests which can be deployed up to 16 locations.
As part of this release, standard tests will now incur additional costs to continue to utilize. If you have set up standard tests as part of the public preview, these will no longer run without cost. See Azure Monitor Pricing.
