Dealing with invalid options..

[vondele]

when passing option.FooBar=11 to an engine that doesn't have it, cutechess-cli will warn as in :

Warning: New-ee6fc7e38b4aeef44862159215a56d97122f59a0 doesn't have option FooBar

If an existing option has an invalid value cutechess-cli will warn as in:

Warning: Invalid value for option Hash: -16

fishtest checks these warning messages:

curretly we have this https://github.com/Disservin/fast-chess/blob/8115d51b94d80ce9104c4e2fe8722832765daaf4/app/src/engine/uci_engine.cpp#L173-#L175 but it doesnt work for some reason, possibly because stockfish doesnt stderr?

[vondele]

must be a cutechess check based on the uci output. SF doesn't generate such warning.

[Disservin]

but it doesnt work for some reason, possibly because stockfish doesnt stderr?

it only checks if the string was successfully send to the engine? there is no validation

A (non-critical) TODO for
official-stockfish/fishtest#2119

[Disservin]

should be fixed by the linked pr, should also have the same output syntax as cutechess
