Are Google Webmaster Tools and Search Console the same thing?

Question

Inherited an old SEO checklist that says 'verify in webmaster tools'. Same thing as search console now, or something separate?

Same thing. Google renamed Webmaster Tools to Search Console back in 2015. Just don't mix it up with Bing Webmaster Tools, which still has that name and is worth verifying too.
