Not sure about brick wall tests. Brick walls don't contains very fine details and the test is sensitive to camera position due to depth of field.
If testing on a wall, I'd use news paper pages with lots of text to evaluate relative sharpness.
I'd suggest.
- auto-focus and manual focus at infinity distant line of trees at the horizon in the diagonal of the sensor, camera rotated at an angle, compare extreme corners and center
- focus at nearest distance, check that the lens can focus versus lens spec.
- center auto-focus accuracy at mid distance vs live view
- check each aperture settings in AV mode, from wide f3.5 open to max f22/f29, check that exposure is correct
