GBA TASer of 2023 Homebrew TAS of 2023 Gameboy TASer of 2022 NES TASer of 2015
I've been pretty busy lately, but I'm still trying to make progress where I can. Recently I became aware of some relatively new tests: https://github.com/hades-emu/Hades-Tests Turns out GBAHawk was failing several of them, but for relatively simple reasons. I fixed those up (but one of them fails on hardware, dma latch test 4, so that one will remain failing, I opened an issue about it.) Also recently many new tests were added to the mGBA test suite, mainly focused on the serial port. I fail most of those for some reason, I think for them to work I need to have a link cable plugged in but not connected to a second GBA, maybe, I haven't had time to look into any of the details. Serial port is still low priority (its good enough for pokemon coop diploma, and that's probably one of the only use cases), so I'll kick that can down the road. More interestingly, there is a ppu background display test that fails. I thought I had that pretty well nailed down so I was pretty surprised it wasn't quite right. Anyway always more to do.

I went to check which suites you have, but there are no testroms in the repo—please tell me you're not running them manually.
I contribute to BizHawk as Linux/cross-platform lead, testing and automation lead, and UI designer. This year, I'm experimenting with streaming BizHawk development on Twitch. nope Links to find me elsewhere and to some of my side projects are on my personal site. I will respond on Discord faster than to PMs on this site.
Hey look buddy, I'm an engineer. That means I solve problems. Not problems like "What is software," because that would fall within the purview of your conundrums of philosophy. I solve practical problems. For instance, how am I gonna stop some high-wattage thread-ripping monster of a CPU dead in its tracks? The answer: use code. And if that don't work? Use more code.

By mGBA suite I mean this one: https://github.com/mgba-emu/suite which has many many tests in one ROM, testing many aspects of the GBA. More generally, there are many suites of GBA tests scattered around. Some of them are represented here: https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/GBA_Tests but there are others. By running them manually I assume you mean as opposed to some automated process, then yes. I'm also aware that my documentation of any of this is poor to non-existent, but there's always just too much to do.
