In circuit, you will probably best to check them with a scope with the circuit powered.
You might have to take them out of circuit to make sense of them with DMM. Unless they're burned and you get continuity between the gate and D/S (with the circuit unpowered, of course).
IMO, in any sort of switching supply like this, it is usually a good idea to check the FETs, first, before you replace the driving IC. If the FET is smoked, it'll usually kill the IC. An output pin doesn't normally last too long when it's pinned to one of the rails.
