A method of operation is provided. During this method, a first power system of an aircraft powerplant is operated to provide a first quantity of power and/or torque to drive rotation of a propulsor rotor. A second power system of the aircraft powerplant is tested during the operating of the first power system. The second power system is configured as or otherwise includes an electric machine. The testing of the second power system includes: signaling the second power system to use the electric machine to provide a second quantity of power and/or torque to further drive the rotation of the propulsor rotor; determining an operational parameter of the aircraft powerplant following the signaling; and evaluating operability of the second power system by comparing the operational parameter to a threshold.
