Per the AMM chapter 5 it will be progressive. Initial inpsection includes evidence of windshield crazing, paint erosion, erosion of pitot tubes, TAT probes, AOA sensors, engine inlets etc, smells in air conditioning etc If findings found during this process then you move on to engine boroscopes etc etc. each manufacturer's AMM will be different but thats a very basic explanation.
