Sorry to hear about the fall. Hope it is all okay.

First do the shake test individually for the body and the lens. Then you can go through all or mostly used menu items and check whether all functions okay. If all works, then electronics should be in good shape. Then test IBIS (image stabilization). Take few shots handheld with slow shutter with a long lens. If you can remember how IBIS behaved previously, you can compare. Then need to check the lens for misalignments. This thread gives some insight to lens tests:
