Do you test for the existence of a database trigger on a regular basis?

Hi Folks,

I'm setting up some table triggers and associated trigger programs that
will create an interface table for another system.

Unlike a program that will error if a file is not journalled when required,
there isn't anything that will error if a table trigger is expected but is
missing or disabled.

I'm wondering if I should be creating a daily job to check. If the trigger
is not active, data will not get sent to the external system, and that
would be bad.

Is anyone checking if a trigger is still active or does everyone sleep
tight at night thinking everything is good?

Thank you in advance for any insights.

Yours truly,
