A method for examining a robot apparatus which includes a driving source configured to drive a joint, the position and orientation of which are controlled based on trajectory data determined in advance for a normal motion. The examination method includes generating examination motion data for driving a joint as an examination target under a driving speed that causes the examination target joint to resonate and causing the examination target joint to pass through a path based on the trajectory data. A resonance amplitude of the joint is acquired based on the examination motion data.
