test.benchmark v0.3.2

test.benchmark

A wrapper over Benchmark.js to make writing benchmarks easier

Example

var Benchmark = require('test.benchmark');
var Future = require('data.future');

// Synchronous
var suite = Benchmark.syncSuite('Testing characters', {
  'RegExp#test': function() {
    /o/.test('Hello World!')
  },
  'String#indexOf': function() {
    'Hello World'.indexOf('o') !== -1
  }
});

// Asynchronous
var asyncSuite = Benchmark.asyncSuite('Scheduling', {
  'nextTick': new Future(function(reject, resolve) {
    process.nextTick(resolve)
  }),
  'setImmediate': new Future(function(reject, resolve) {
    setImmediate(resolve)
  })
});

Benchmark.runWithDefaults([asyncSuite, suite]);

// Benchmarks for: Scheduling...
//
// o nextTick x 770 ops/sec ±0.70% (66 runs sampled)
// o setImmediate x 758 ops/sec ±1.18% (86 runs sampled)
// 
// Fastest: nextTick
// Slowest: setImmediate
// 
// ---
// 
// Benchmarks for: Testing characters...
// 
// o RegExp#test x 3,162,850 ops/sec ±3.20% (91 runs sampled)
// o String#indexOf x 5,175,777 ops/sec ±1.69% (86 runs sampled)
// 
// Fastest: String#indexOf
// Slowest: RegExp#test
// 
// ---
// All benchmarks finished.

Installing

The easiest way is to grab it from NPM. If you're running in a Browser environment, you can use Browserify

$ npm install test.benchmark

Using with CommonJS

If you're not using NPM, Download the latest release, and require the test.benchmark.umd.js file:

var Benchmark = require('test.benchmark')

Using with AMD

Download the latest release, and require the test.benchmark.umd.js file:

require(['test.benchmark'], function(Benchmark) {
  ( ... )
})

Using without modules

Download the latest release, and load the test.benchmark.umd.js file. The properties are exposed in the global Folktale.Test.Benchmark object:

<script src="/path/to/test.benchmark.umd.js"></script>

Compiling from source

If you want to compile this library from the source, you'll need Git, Make, Node.js, and run the following commands:

$ git clone git://github.com/folktale/test.benchmark.git
$ cd test.benchmark
$ npm install
$ make bundle

This will generate the dist/test.benchmark.umd.js file, which you can load in any JavaScript environment.

Documentation

You can read the documentation online or build it yourself:

$ git clone git://github.com/folktale/test.benchmark.git
$ cd test.benchmark
$ npm install
$ make documentation

Then open the file docs/index.html in your browser.

Platform support

This library assumes an ES5 environment, but can be easily supported in ES3 platforms by the use of shims. Just include es5-shim :)
