I have a form and this form content a list checks to get some favorite of the user but I don't know how to get all checkbox checked. 

<div class="col-md-12 form">
    <div class="title">Hobbies</div>
    <div class="form-item">
        <input type="checkbox" name="hobbies" id="checkbox-1" value="1" class="custom" />
        <label for="checkbox-1">Films</label>
        <input type="checkbox" name="hobbies" id="checkbox-2" value="2" class="custom" />
        <label for="checkbox-2">Travle</label>
        <input type="checkbox" name="hobbies" id="checkbox-3" value="3" class="custom" />
        <label for="checkbox-3">Restaurant</label>
        <input type="checkbox" name="hobbies" id="checkbox-4" value="4" class="custom" />
        <label for="checkbox-4">Other</label>
    </div>
</div>

    1. To check the status of a single checkbox you can use :checked selector as bellow:

    $('#' + id).is(":checked") 

    2. To get the array value of checkboxes selected with the same name:

    var checkbox = $('.form .form-item input[name=hobbies]:checked');
    // return list checkbox object selected 

    And then you can loop through them and see what's checked you can do:

    checkbox.each(function(){
        // Do stuff here with this
    }); 

    3. To validate form you can check the length of checkbox variable

    if(checkbox == null || checkbox.length <= 0){
      // show msg error here
    } 

    See demo code
