The "upgrade_check" method doesn't return anything, it just triggers the 
execution of the process to check for upgrades. Then only result will be 
that an icon will be displayed in the UI.

That isn't very useful, to be honest, so I'd suggest to open a bug to 
modify this so that the upgrade runs synchronously, and so that the 
method returns the boolean that you expected.
