Running test suites

For each test rom we have to consider:

Game Boy devices & SoC revisions: What device & SoC revision is a test compatible to? This is quite important as some tests will not run on all devices. See the Mooneye Test Suite's readme for a list of devices and SoC revisions.
Exit Condition: When is a test finished?
Test Success/Failure: How do we identify test success or failure?

Details on this can be found in a separate readme for each test suite:

Versioning

All noteworthy adjustments can be found in the changelog.

Note that version numbers are NOT based on semantic versioning as I am not capable of determining what update to any included test suite is actually a breaking change. Instead, major version numbers are increased with every addition of new test suites and minor version numbers are increased with any update to already included test suites.
