What is RoboResearch Now?
RoboResearch is a tool you can use to test your bot's performance in different challenges, whether standard ones found on this wiki (see the "Challenges" section on the Main Page) or challenges you create yourself. It will run multiple battles of your bot against each of the reference bots in the challenge, reporting your bot's score after each one. It can also leverage the added power of dual- or quad-core machines by specifying the number of battles to run in parallel. This tool, or one like it, is a must for any serious robot developer.
Check out some sample output from running a 76th season of the Movement Challenge 2K7 on a dual-core machine. Notice that results are in wiki format to easily copy and paste to brag about your results (currently using a mix of UseMod and MediaWiki formats).
