Know of an emulator that's not listed here? Has one of these emulators released a newer version? Please let me know! email to: sgstair [at] akkit [dot] org -Thanks!
Note to emulator authors: if you want SVN access to the project, to see the test code and build the test for yourself (As releases will lag behind features by a bit), this can be arranged, just bug me about it.

Controls (in SVN Rev 10)
Yes, you need information about the controls. There are entirely too many options now.
General controls are:
- D-pad navigates
- (A) starts the test you're on and any subtests, this could take a lot of time! some tests are very long! - also halts when an error is encountered
- (Start) starts the test you're on and any subtests, but does *not* halt when an error is encountered!
- (Select) starts the test you're on and any subtests in interactive mode - also halts when an error is encountered.
- (X) Starts the test you're on and any subtests in "quick mode" - quick mode only does a subset of the full test, but generally has nearly the same potency. Also this mode halts when an error occurs.
- (Y) Starts the test you're on and any subtests in quick mode and interactive mode - also halts when an error is encountered
About the "quick mode": the BG tests have been modified to test every bg mode + bg layer combination that should be possible; quick mode just does the first one, quick mode is essentially the same level of testing that was done in previous versions. Do note though, that a green in quick mode doesn't necessarily mean all of the tests have been passed, it's just a way to bypass the rigourous tests that have now been added.
A little bit about interactive mode... Interactive mode freezes and shows the results of every "check" in the test - it's not going to be possible to use interactive mode for all of the tests (and it will simply not work for tests it's incapable of being used with). When in interactive mode, after every test component you will get the "error screen", only most likely with a green rectangle and no red pixels in the "errors" window. When you're in this screen (A) takes you to the next one, and (B) continues the test, but stops freezing after each test to show you what it's doing.
