Description

Description of feature

Would it be possible to add the ability to benchmark against multiple truth sets within the same run? E.g. by specifying truth_id, truth_vcf and regions_bed for each row in the samplesheet instead of as parameters.

Research direction

Start by tracing how the samplesheet and the current truth_id, truth_vcf, and regions_bed parameters enter the benchmarking workflow. Determine how each sample row could carry its own truth set and how runs currently select these values. Done means a run can benchmark multiple rows against distinct truth sets, with validation covering the samplesheet inputs.
