Peptest is a Mozilla automated testing harness for running responsiveness tests. These tests measure how long events spend away from the event loop.

Running Tests

Currently tests are run from the command line with python. Peptest currently depends on some external Mozilla python packages, namely: mozrunner, mozprocess, mozprofile, mozinfo, mozlog and manifestdestiny. These packages are in the process of being consolidated into one location but currently live in three different locations.

  • Clone the mozmill, mozbase and manifestdestiny repositories at github.com/mozautomation/mozmill , github.com/mozilla/mozbase and hg.mozilla.org/automation/ManifestDestiny/ respectively. Alternatively many of these packages live on pypi and can be installed via the normal easy_install or pip method.

  • Create a new virtualenv and install the mozrunner, mozprofile, mozprocess, mozinfo, mozlog and manifestdestiny packages into it (run 'python setup.py install' for each).

  • Clone the Peptest repo at github.com/ahal/peptest

  • Run the command (use --help for a full list of commands)

      python runpeptests.py --binary <path_to_binary> --profile-path <path_to_profile> --test-path <path_to_test_manifest> --log-file <path_to_logfile>
