OIDNTEST(1)

🎀 NAME 🎀

oidnTest — it's the manual page for oidnTest version 2.4.0, bestie 💖 and yeah, it's a Catch v2.13.6 test binary, so it's giving "unit test runner that also runs your denoiser benchmarks" energy ✨

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so, Catch v2.13.6 usage, here's the vibe 💅

oidnTest [<test name|pattern|tags> ... ] options

where options are: (and yes, there are a LOT, but we're gonna get through every single one together, no skipping, no cap 🫶)

• -?, -h, --help — display usage information 🥰 (your classic "help me pls" button)
• -l, --list-tests — list all/matching test cases 📋
• -t, --list-tags — list all/matching tags 🏷️
• -s, --success — include successful tests in output ✅ (yes even the ones that passed, main character behaviour)
• -b, --break — break into debugger on failure 💀 (it literally stops right there so you can poke at it)
• -e, --nothrow — skip exception tests 🙈
• -i, --invisibles — show invisibles (tabs, newlines) 👀 (so you can SEE the sneaky whitespace)
• -o, --out <filename> — output filename 📁
• -r, --reporter <name> — reporter to use (defaults to console) 🎤
• -n, --name <name> — suite name 🏷️
• -a, --abort — abort at first failure 🛑 (zero tolerance era)
• -x, --abortx <no. failures> — abort after x failures 🔢 (you pick the number, it obeys)
• -w, --warn <warning name> — enable warnings ⚠️
• -d, --durations <yes|no> — show test durations ⏱️
• -D, --min-duration <seconds> — show test durations for tests taking at least the given number of seconds 🐌 (only the slow girlies get shown)
• -f, --input-file <filename> — load test names to run from a file 📄
• -#, --filenames-as-tags — adds a tag for the filename 🏷️
• -c, --section <section name> — specify section to run 📚
• -v, --verbosity <quiet|normal|high> — set output verbosity 🔊
• --list-test-names-only — list all/matching test cases names only 🤫 (just the names, no extra chatter)
• --list-reporters — list all reporters 📢
• --order <decl|lex|rand> — test case order (defaults to decl) 🔀
• --rng-seed <'time'|number> — set a specific seed for random numbers 🎲
• --use-colour <yes|no> — should output be colourised 🌈
• --libidentify — report name and version according to libidentify standard 🪪
• --wait-for-keypress <never|start|exit|both> — waits for a keypress before exiting ⌨️ (it'll pause and wait for you, bestie)
• --benchmark-samples <samples> — number of samples to collect (default: 100) 📊
• --benchmark-resamples <resamples> — number of resamples for the bootstrap (default: 100000) 🔁
• --benchmark-confidence-interval <confidence interval> — confidence interval for the bootstrap (between 0 and 1, default: 0.95) 📈
• --benchmark-no-analysis — perform only measurements; do not perform any analysis 🧪 (raw numbers only, we're just vibing)
• --benchmark-warmup-time <benchmarkWarmupTime> — amount of time in milliseconds spent on warming up each test (default: 100) 🔥
• --device <[0-9]+|default|cpu|sycl|cuda|hip|metal> — Open Image Denoise device to use 🖥️

For more detailed usage please see the project docs 📖

real talk: this is a Catch2 test binary, so if you're like "wait why does a denoiser test have benchmark flags", that's just how it is, periodt 💅
