    What version of Quartus/AOC are you using? This option is only available in the newer versions of the compiler (I think 18.0+). Also note that based on the documentation, this feature is for simulating OpenCL libraries; you cannot simulate standard OpenCL kernels with this. You can emulate standard OpenCL kernels using -march=emulator but that is only functional simulation (not timing-accurate).

There is no standard way provided by Intel to do that as far as I know. You might be able to do it manually by loading the OpenCL project in Quartus and creating test-benches yourself for all the signals involved.
