/* Package gomega/gmeasure provides support for benchmarking and measuring code. It is intended as a more robust replacement for Ginkgo V1's Measure nodes. **gmeasure IS CURRENTLY IN BETA - THE API MAY CHANGE IN THE NEAR-FUTURE. gmeasure WILL BE CONSIDERED GA WHEN Ginkgo V2 IS GA. gmeasure is organized around the metaphor of an Experiment that can record multiple Measurements. A Measurement is a named collection of data points and gmeasure supports measuring Values (of type float64) and Durations (of type time.Duration). Experiments allows the user to record Measurements directly by passing in Values (i.e. float64) or Durations (i.e. time.Duration) or to measure measurements by passing in functions to measure. When measuring functions Experiments take care of timing the duration of functions (for Duration measurements) and/or recording returned values (for Value measurements). Experiments also support sampling functions - when told to sample Experiments will run functions repeatedly and measure and record results. The sampling behavior is configured by passing in a SamplingConfig that can control the maximum number of samples, the maximum duration for sampling (or both) and the number of concurrent samples to take. Measurements can be decorated with additional information. This is supported by passing in special typed decorators when recording measurements. These include: - Units("any string") - to attach units to a Value Measurement (Duration Measurements always have units of "duration") - Style("any Ginkgo color style string") - to attach styling to a Measurement. This styling is used when rendering console information about the measurement in reports. Color style strings are documented at TODO. - Precision(integer or time.Duration) - to attach precision to a Measurement. This controls how many decimal places to show for Value Measurements and how to round Duration Measurements when rendering them to screen. In addition, individual data points in a Measurement can be annotated with an Annotation("any string"). The annotation is associated with the individual data point and is intended to convey additional context about the data point. Once measurements are complete, an Experiment can generate a comprehensive report by calling its String() or ColorableString() method. Users can also access and analyze the resulting Measurements directly. Use Experiment.Get(NAME) to fetch the Measurement named NAME. This returned struct will have fields containing all the data points and annotations recorded by the experiment. You can subsequently fetch the Measurement.Stats() to get a Stats struct that contains basic statistical information about the Measurement (min, max, median, mean, standard deviation). You can order these Stats objects using RankStats() to identify best/worst performers across multpile experiments or measurements. gmeasure also supports caching Experiments via an ExperimentCache. The cache supports storing and retreiving experiments by name and version. This allows you to rerun code without repeating expensive experiments that may not have changed (which can be controlled by the cache version number). It also enables you to compare new experiment runs with older runs to detect variations in performance/behavior. When used with Ginkgo, you can emit experiment reports and encode them in test reports easily using Ginkgo V2's support for Report Entries. Simply pass your experiment to AddReportEntry to get a report every time the tests run. You can also use AddReportEntry with Measurements to emit all the captured data and Rankings to emit measurement summaries in rank order. Finally, Experiments provide an additional mechanism to measure durations called a Stopwatch. The Stopwatch makes it easy to pepper code with statements that measure elapsed time across different sections of code and can be useful when debugging or evaluating bottlenecks in a given codepath. */ package gmeasure import ( "fmt" "math" "reflect" "sync" "time" "github.com/onsi/gomega/gmeasure/table" ) /* SamplingConfig configures the Sample family of experiment methods.
