Say I have a base class TestBase where I define a vistual method TestMe()

class TestBase
{
    public virtual bool TestMe() {  }
}

Now I inherit this class:

class Test1 : TestBase
{
    public override bool TestMe() {}
}

Now, using Reflection, I need to find if the method TestMe has been overriden in child class - is it possible?

What I need it for - I am writing a designer visualizer for type "object" to show the whole hierarchy of inheritance and also show which virtual methods were overridden at which level.
