Github Status vs Github Checks

Hi, I am little confused what check and status is.

I have this repository (https://github.com/apitte/debug) and master branch is failing.

What should I use to display Github Actions badge? What is the difference between status and check?

Thank you very much.

status and checks are two types of status checks (…yes) provided by GitHub. Their docs explain the differences at:

• https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/github/collaborating-with-issues-and-pull-requests/about-status-checks#types-of-status-checks-on-github
• https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/rest/reference/checks
• https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/rest/reference/repos#statuses
