If I just engage it and not doing anything, it looks like it goes through a self test. Is this correct?

Thanks for your help!
The autopilot test on the Saab 340 goes like this:

In flight, connect the autopilot.

Does it fly better than you?

If yes, the autopilot is working fine.

If not, the autopilot is broken.

End of test.
