Older cars test all the dash indicators when you start them by turning them all on so you can check for burnt out bulbs.

Not just older cars. Every car does this when you turn the ignition on.

Do new cars still have individual lights for these things, or do you just get, I dunno, a dialog box or something?

The symbols are standardized, they even show up if your instrument cluster is just a screen. But they no longer have to be individual bulbs or LEDs.
