The Z80's feature discovered after 40 years [video]
Despite giving a talk, I'm not an expert on the subject, but if you look at ZX Spectrum forums and the ZX Spectrum discord, you'll find more information: the block instruction flags, the NMI preservation during reset, SCF/CCF flag instability. I haven't research any of those yet, but many have and did publish those results ! redcode's Z80 emulator seems to be the most up-to-date on those subjects: https://github.com/redcode/Z80/blob/master/THANKS (has many links to the various reverse engineered parts).

Yet Another Space Invaders Emulator Question: Player death at startup
Or you could dump the state of the CPU every tick in your emulator and in some other emulator you know works (I've used https://github.com/superzazu/8080/ for that in the past), and diff the results.
What are some alternatives?
