How to Run the Tester

1. Open a terminal and navigate to the directory containing the test_runner.py script.

2. Run the tester with one of the following commands:

• To test the Assembler (runs assembler on assembly input tests and compares output with assembler solutions):

python3 test_runner.py --no-sim

-To test the Simulator (runs simulator on binary input tests and compares output with simulator solutions):

python3 test_runner.py --no-asm

The script will automatically:

Run all tests in the hardcoded test directories,

Compare the program outputs to the expected solution files,

Print which tests passed or failed,

Show a summary at the end.
