CuteChess testing problems

Post by ericlangedijk »

It seems I am having some crazy problem, using CuteChess cli for testing my engine.
This is assuming my engine has no bugs.

I am running a batch test 200 games with 40/180 timecontrol and my engine loses quite heavily to some other engine.
When running some of these games in the CuteChess GUI with the same time control and the same parameters my engine quite effortlessly beats the other engine.

Are there other people experiencing these kind of problems?

The option `-debug` prints all engine input and output to the console. Have you tried that?
