benchmarkify

:zap: benchmarkify

Benchmark framework for NodeJS for measure the execution time of JS codes.

Installation

$ npm install benchmarkify --save-dev

Usage

Example benchmark suite

const Benchmarkify = require("benchmarkify");

// Create a new benchmark
// The `.printHeader` method will print the name of benchmark & some
// information from the OS/PC to the console.
const benchmark = new Benchmarkify("Simple example").printHeader();

let i = 0;

// Create a test suite
const bench1 = benchmark.createSuite("Increment integer");

// Add first func
bench1.add("Increment with ++", () => {
	i++;
});

// Add second func. This result will be the reference
bench1.ref("Increment with i + 1", () => {
	i = i + 1;
});

bench1.run();

JSON result

If you need the results in JSON use .then after run()

bench1.run().then(res => console.log(res));

Result on console:

[
	{
		name: 'Increment with ++',
		fastest: true,
		stat: {
			duration: 4.999651845,
			cycle: 492086,
			count: 492086000,

	},
	{

		reference: true,

API

Class Benchmarkify

const benchmark = new Benchmarkify("Benchmark #1", opts);

Constructor options

• logger - print messages to this logger. Default: console
• spinner - show spinner when running tests. Default: true
• minSamples - Minimum samples. Default: 0 - not used
• description - Custom description field.
• meta - To store any meta information. Result JSON contains it.

Methods

• createSuite - Create a new benchmark suite.
• run(suites: Array): Promise -

Class Suite

const bench1 = benchmark.createSuite("Date performance", { time: 1000 });

Constructor options

• name - Name of suite.
• time - Time of test. Default: 5000 (5sec)
• minSamples - Minimum samples. Default 0 - disabled
• description - Custom description field.
• meta - To store any meta information. Result JSON contains it.

Methods

• add(name: string, fn: Function, opts: Object) - Add a function to the suite
• skip(name: string, fn: Function, opts: Object) - Skip the function
• only(name: string, fn: Function, opts: Object) - Run only this function
• ref(name: string, fn: Function, opts: Object) - Add a function and it'll be the reference
• run(): Promise - Run the suite.
• setup(fn): Promise - Function to execute before test suite.
• tearDown(fn): Promise - Function to execute after test suite.

Async functions

If you would like to test async function use the done callback.

bench.add("Async call test", done => {
	asyncFunction(data).then(() => done());
});

or

bench.add("Async call test", async done => {
	await asyncFunction(data)
	done();
});
