1. Standard coagulation profile which includes APTT, PT, APTT Ratio and Fibrinogen
2. Full blood count which is mainly to see, how the Platelet counts are.
3. Specific tests that are to measure any deficiency of clotting factors.

The first two are very commonly used in the clinical area to diagnose problem with the clotting. If these are normal but, the person continue to bleed for no reason, the third one will be requested.
Hope, this helps.
