The first attempts at reviving are going to focus on testing the resurrection method. I'm not sure if you want to be in that bunch.
If you want then it's important for the people who resurrect you to check whether your personality is intact or changed.
If you would fill out a personality test every month and that test would provide stable values before your death, it would be interesting to check whether your personality stays stable.
Having a complex Anki deck that contains information about cards that should be in your mind would also be useful for that purpose.
A personality change might simply be because of the new, futuristic environment. One could control for this by bringing personality-stable people from a poor, underdeveloped country into civilisation.
My understanding was that written personality tests tend to have low accuracy although I could easily be wrong in that belief. I think video recordings might be more useful.
As an alternative, what would you think of assuming a certain degree of advance in computation and psychology, and making arrangements to store every bit of digital data I've ever typed, or decided was worth storing in my personal e-library?
More data is likely better when you want to check whether anything in the mind is lost.
