Yes, or you can use the flac executable itself with the -t option,
which stands for test.  With a small amount of scripting with something
like perl, you can test you entire library and log the results.  I have
done this myself.

TiredLegs, if you are referring to the same FLAC Tester I've used in
the past, it is a Windows only application and doesn't do any logging.
