You can do the "throw it in the trash and buy a thinkpad"
Seriously, Lenovo = thinkpad.
Anyway:

Check if it boots
Check i battery cycles
Check for dead keys
Check if the carger aint shorted.
Check charger port, if it is not fucked up
Check temps (Both CPU and GPU)
Check audio: Get VLC and put it in 200% volume see if the sound is ok.
Check for screen scraches
Check dead pixels
Check if fan works
That's it. A bit of advice, lenovo quality fell a little. So do not expect the lenovo brand new experience.

This isn't a very good stress test unless you leave the machine plugged in to AC power. Things are going to undervolt/underclock on battery.

Use the Lenovo bloatware.
Not even kidding that shit is acurate.

200% volume is going to cause distortion whether the sound system is okay or not, assuming you're playing a video with properly normalized sound.

Lenovo has third party vendors that they certify to sell refurbished laptops. If it's not from one of those people then i'd stay away. You can find a lot of the legit refurbished sellers on eBay.
