+See the readme in the main project, `../BizHawk.Tests.Testroms.GB`.
+
+On Linux, run `/res/download_from_ci.sh` to automatically download and extract the CI artifacts containing the necessary testroms.
+On Windows, run the same script in WSL, or do it manually (because Yoshi can't be bothered porting the script to PowerShell).
+For this project, the expected directory structure is:
+```
+res
+└─ Gambatte-testroms_artifact
+```
+
+Note that firmware does not need to be copied here. They are taken from `../BizHawk.Tests.Testroms.GB/res/fw` if present.
+
+> This test suite is huge and takes a **really long time** to run. Like several hours.
+
+Summary of `BIZHAWKTEST_RUN_KNOWN_FAILURES=1 ./run_tests_release.sh` should read 13681 passed / 1304 skipped / 0 failed.

+Before building, testroms and firmware need to be placed under `/res` in this project.
+You *should* be able to omit any suite or firmware and the relevant cases will be skipped.
+Firmware needs to be manually copied into a `fw` dir;
+testroms need to be copied into a separate dir per suite, with a hierarchy matching the CI artifacts of [this repo](https://gitlab.com/tasbot/libre-roms-ci).
+On Linux, run `/res/download_from_ci.sh` to automatically download and extract said artifacts.
+On Windows, run the same script in WSL, or do it manually (because Yoshi can't be bothered porting the script to PowerShell).
+All told, the expected directory structure is:
+```
+res
+├─ BullyGB_artifact
+├─ cgb-acid-hell_artifact
+├─ cgb-acid2_artifact
+├─ dmg-acid2_artifact
+├─ fw
+│   ├─ GB__World__DMG.bin

+
+As with EmuHawk, the target framework and configuration for all the BizHawk project deps is dictated by this project. That means .NET Standard 2.0, or .NET 5 if the project supports it.
+To build and run the tests in `Release` configuration (or `Debug` if you need that for some reason):
+- On Linux, run `run_tests_release.sh` or `run_tests_debug.sh`.
+- On Windows, pass `-c Release` to `dotnet test` (must `cd` to this project). Omitting `-c` will use `Debug`.
+
+> You can at this point run the tests, but you should probably keep reading to see your options.
+
+To run only some suites, comment out applications of the `[DataTestMethod]` attribute in the source. (Or applications of `[TestClass]`.)
+You can also disable individual test cases programmatically by modifying `TestUtils.ShouldIgnoreCase`—
+note that "ignored" here means cases are completely removed, and do not count as "skipped".
+
+By default, known failures are counted as "skipped" *without actually running them*.
+Set the env. var `BIZHAWKTEST_RUN_KNOWN_FAILURES=1` to run them as well. They will count as "skipped" if they fail, or "failed" if they succeed unexpectedly.
+
+On Linux, all cases for unavailable cores (N/A currently) are counted as "skipped".
+
+Screenshots may be saved under `/test_output/<suite>` **in the repo**.
+For ease of typing, a random prefix is chosen for each case e.g. `DEADBEEF_{expected,actual}_*.png`. This is included in stdout (Windows users, see below for how to enable stdout).
+
+The env. var `BIZHAWKTEST_SAVE_IMAGES` determines when to save screenshots (usually an expect/actual pair) to disk.
+- With `BIZHAWKTEST_SAVE_IMAGES=all`, all screenshots are saved.
+- With `BIZHAWKTEST_SAVE_IMAGES=failures` (the default), only screenshots of failed tests are saved.
+- With `BIZHAWKTEST_SAVE_IMAGES=none`, screenshots are never saved.
+
+Test results are output using the logger(s) specified on the command-line.
+(Without the `console` logger, the results are summarised in the console, but prints to stdout are not shown.)
+- On Linux, the shell scripts add the `console` and `junit` (to file, for GitLab CI) loggers.
+- On Windows, pass `-l "console;verbosity=detailed"` to `dotnet`.
+
+> Note that the results and stdout for each test case are not printed immediately.
+> Cases are grouped by test method, and once the set of test cases is finished executing, the outputs are sent to the console all at once.
+
+Linux examples:
+```sh
+# default: simple regression testing, all test suites, saving failures to disk
+./run_tests_release.sh
+
+# every test from every suite, not saving anything to disk (as might be used in CI)
+BIZHAWKTEST_RUN_KNOWN_FAILURES=1 BIZHAWKTEST_SAVE_IMAGES=none ./run_tests_release.sh
+```
+
+Windows examples:
+```pwsh
+# reminder that if you have WSL, you can use that to run /res/download_from_ci.sh first
+
+# default: simple regression testing, all test suites, saving failures to disk
+dotnet test -c Release -l "console;verbosity=detailed"
+
+# same as Linux CI example
+$Env:BIZHAWKTEST_RUN_KNOWN_FAILURES = 1
+$Env:BIZHAWKTEST_SAVE_IMAGES = "all"
+dotnet test -c Release -l "console;verbosity=detailed"
+```
+
+Summary of `BIZHAWKTEST_RUN_KNOWN_FAILURES=1 ./run_tests_release.sh` should read 86 passed / 118 skipped / 0 failed.
