Abstract

cob compares benchmarks between the latest commit (HEAD) and the previous commit (HEAD{@1}). The program will fail if the change in score is worse than the threshold. This tools is suitable for CI/CD to detect a regression of a performance automatically.

cob runs go test -bench before and after commit internally, so it depends on go command.

CAUTION: Note that git reset is executed when you run cob. You should commit all changes before running cob.

Example

Override a command to measure benchmarks

To measure benchmarks by make bench, you can use -bench-cmd and -bench-args options.

$ cob -bench-cmd make -bench-args bench

Run only those benchmarks matching a regular expression

$ cob -bench-args "test -bench Append -benchmem ./..."

2020/01/12 17:48:39 This commit makes benchmarks worse

Specify a threshold

The following option means the program fails if a benchmark score gets worse than 50%.

$ cob -threshold 0.5 ./...

Specify a base commit compared with HEAD

By default, cob uses HEAD~1. If you compare benchmarks with different commit, you can use --base option.

$ cob --base origin/master ./...

Compare only memory allocation

You can use -compare option.

$ cob -compare B/op

Skip running cob

If your commit message contains [skip cob], cob is skipped.

$ git add README.md
$ git commit -m "[skip cob] update README.md"
$ cob
2020/04/19 12:46:57 [skip cob] is detected, so the benchmark is skipped
