Webmin has a module for this. It is very flexible, can monitor PIDs on the 
local machine, or ping remote servers and services. You can configure what to 
do when a service is running or not - send email, write logfile, call program 
etc.
There's a simple display pannel showing all your tests, and whether they are 
running or not.
No reporting or anything built in though.
