Perftest

This repository is used to run low level performance tests on the react-facets library and benchmark the results against the standard version of react.

These tests are run on the v8 engine directly to closer provide parity to the v8 utilization within the GameFace library.

Requirements

All requirements can be installed via your systems package manager such as choco, brew, yay, etc...

• Deno
• Yarn / NPM
• v8

Writing Tests

Tests cases go in the tests folder and are written in Typescript using tsx. The idea behind the test cases is to maintain consistency across the different frameworks.

The general timing pattern is as follows, mount the component, begin timer, run iterations, end timer.

Running Tests

Run the main.ts entry script using Deno.

The test can also be run using the pre-configured tests Deno task as shown below:

$ deno task tests

Application Overview

The main.ts is the initial entry point to the application and performs a series of tasks to produce an output results-[epochtime].json file. The series of actions are as follows.

• Clean the temporary file storage directory
• Read the .tsx filenames from the tests directory
• Compile the test files to es5 bundles via esbuild
• Read the output .js filenames from the temporary runs folder
• Run the .js files from the runs folder via d8
• Collet the stdout from each run
• Write output to a results-[epochtime].json file to the results directory
• Cleanup the temporary runs directory
• Close handles and exit the application

Deployment

The resulting output data is to be stored within Github pages / releases for later data processing and visualisation.

Considerations

The resulting output data may be best stored on disk in some other format such as csv or sqlite.
