fluster – Testing framework for video decoder conformance

fluster [-h] [-r RESOURCES] [-o OUTPUT] [-ne] [-tsd TEST_SUITES_DIR] {list,l,run,r,download,d,reference,f}

fluster is a testing framework written in Python for video decoder conformance. It is composed of a command-line application that runs a number of test suites with the supported decoders. Its purpose is to check different decoder implementations against known test suites with known and proven results. It was originally designed to check the conformance of H.265/HEVC decoders, but it also supports H.264/AVC, H.266/VVC, VP8, VP9, AV1 and AAC.

Set the directory where resources are taken from.
Set the directory where test results will be stored.
Set to use plain text instead of emojis.
Set the directory where test suite will be read from.

Show a list of available test suites and decoders.
Run test suites for decoders.
Number of parallel jobs to use. 1x logical cores by default. 0 means all logical cores.
Timeout in secs for each decoding. Defaults to 30 secs.
Stop after first fail.
Don’t show every test run.
Run only the specific test suites.
Run only the specific test vectors.
Run only the specific decoders.
Generate a summary in Markdown format for each test suite.
Dump summary output to file.
Specify the format for the summary file.
Keep output files generated during the test.
Set exit code to 2 if threshold tests are not success. Exit code is 0 otherwise.
Set exit code to 3 if test suite takes longer than threshold seconds. Exit code is 0 otherwise.
Show stdout and stderr of commands executed.
Downloads test suites resources.
testsuites List of testsuites to download. Defaults to all.
Number of parallel jobs to use. 2x logical cores by default. 0 means all logical cores.
Keep original downloaded file after extracting. Only applicable to compressed files such as .zip, .tar.gz, etc
