This is a clone of vairiantfishtest with a GUI support.
variantfishtest.py is a python script to run matches between two given UCI chess variant engines. It is mainly used for testing of Fairy-Stockfish for variants not supported by cutechess.
The script is variant-agnostic and therefore supports arbitrary variants, and relies on the correctness and consistency of the engines' rule implementation. A similar script with rule-aware game adjudication is fairyfishtest, which uses the CECP/xboard protocol to run matches.
Run python variantfishtest.py -h for instructions on usage.
You need to have python and pip on your PC. see: https://www.python.org/
Open cmd, cd to this variantfishtest directory , then type
pip install -r requirements.txt
Once you finished , type
python gui.py
the GUI will open automatically
