Ah, you need a conformance testsuite.  There are several conformance
ones available, all proprietary AFAIK.  Depending on what you want
to verify, you might need a language conformance testsuite and/or an
ABI conformance testsuite.

A C++ specific forum might be able to provide the best info about
what's available.
