regression.py also does regression test result validation by comparing the test result with the golden standards
for the image.
It is assumed that the steps detailed in the Building Autopsy from Source document have been completed, and that appropriate versions of the JDK, LIBEWF etc, are present on the system. Building Autopsy from Source can be accessed at:

\section regression_test_setup Setting up regression testing
1) Install Cygwin
1a) Download and run the Cygwin setup, available at
http://www.cygwin.com/setup.exe
1b) From the list of packages to install, select both Database and Python.
2) Setting up Regression.py
2a) Place all images that you wish to regression test under
autopsy/Testing/script/input
2b) Ensure that the following files are also under /input
notablehashes.txt-md5.idx
nsrl.txt-md5.idx
notablekeywords.xml
2c) place the gold standard database files ("standards.db") for each image under
autopsy/Testing/script/gold/{name of image}
\section regression_test_running Running regression testing
3) Run regression tests
3a) From the Cygwin terminal, navigate to the /script folder and run "./regression.py". The script will automatically begin Autopsy and run ingestion and analysis on all the images from the /input directory, and will close when finished. The Cygwin terminal will print out whether or not errors were encountered at the end of each image's test.
\section regression_test_update Updating golden standards
4) OPTIONAL: Update the standards databases
4a) From the Cygwin terminal, navigate to
autopsy/Testing/script
4b) run "./regression.py -r", The script will automatically delete pre-existing standards.db files and generate the updated ones in the proper locations (/script/gold/{name of image}).
