Is it possible to check SSD with self-test smartmontools?

There is a server with a SAMSUNG MZ7GE480HMHP-00003 SSD drive.
And now I'm thinking how best to monitor in order to predict its failure.
I will look at changing the smartctl parameters:
5 Reallocated_Sector_Ct
177 Wear_Leveling_Count
184 End-to-End_Error
190 Airflow_Temperature_Cel
And also, I think every day to run a short test:
$ sudo smartctl -t short /dev/sda
and once a week a long test:
$ sudo smartctl -t long /dev/sda
The question is, does this test pass adequately on SSD drives?
Maybe there are some other ways to monitor the life of SSD on linux servers?
Can self-tests hurt?

smartmontools is sufficient.
But in principle, it is not necessary to run the test, it is enough to read smart info and parse
