The A*Team has a lot of performance tool related work in Q3 (goals: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Auto-tools/Goals/2014Q3#Performance)
For folks interested in performance automation and tools here are some of the key areas we plan on working on: * Tree Herder Talos UI - view all performance data from Talos in the Tree Herder UI, replace all the functionality of Datazilla to allow us to turn Datazilla off for Talos data collection/viewing in Q4. We are expecting a delivery of this by the end of August. * High resolution alerts - https://wiki.mozilla.org/Auto-tools/Projects/Alerts, deliver useful alerts per test from Talos (not per test suite as we already do), will be in beta mode as our raw data source will be changing from Datazilla to Tree Herder. ** We are working on defining initial parameters and verifying reliability of the data ** We currently depend on Datazilla API for retrieving the data, this will switch in August to Tree Herder ** Once the Tree Herder UI is in place and we have proven these are useful we will integrate this (eta September) * Graph server - still the standard for sending automated alerts. Minor adjustments to resolve display of retriggers, stop dropping highest value in calculating test suite value and switch to geometric mean instead of average. ** no dependencies ** Will discuss deprecation of this when Tree Herder and high resolution alerts are deployed post Q3. * New Talos tests: tp5o_scroll, media_tests (webRTC), mainthread IO in tp5, and webGL, cold startup * Eideticker - add automated alerts, increase frequency of b2g runs, and get android 2.3 and 4.x runs working again with increased frequency * Add weekly/nightly test runs on windows for cross browser Javascript benchmarking and power profiling. Priorities change every few weeks as new projects become critical, but look for progress on if not completion on the above items. _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
