To ensure the integrity of a backup close to 100% I go the fail safe way:
2. svnadmin dump to dump the current repository
3. svnadmin load the dump into a fresh repository
4. svnadmin dump the newly loaded repository
5. compare the first and the last dump

"check out " "check out" "check all"
But that only checks the working copies so doesn't check the repository structure and hence the history. Comparing the dumps does that.
