how to test VM translator?

[thedumbone]

I didn't make the assembler so this is my first project. (maybe I missed how to test in general in this section?) In the videos of chapter 7, prof describes how the VM emulator works but I think he didn't tell us how to test the push, pop and arithmetic-logical commands. Some help needed.

The project, including how to test it in stages, is described in Chapter 7.5 (either edition).
