Public Class Methods

bench(name, &block) click to toggle source

This is used to define a new benchmark method. You usually don’t use this directly and is intended for those needing to write new performance curve fits (eg: you need a specific polynomial fit).

See ::bench_performance_linear for an example of how to use this.

 
               # File minitest/benchmark.rb, line 317
def self.bench name, &block
  define_method "bench_#{name.gsub(/\W+/, '_')}", &block
end
            
bench_performance_constant(name, threshold = 0.99, &work) click to toggle source

Create a benchmark that verifies that the performance is constant.

describe "my class" do
  bench_performance_constant "zoom_algorithm!" do
    @obj.zoom_algorithm!
  end
end
 
               # File minitest/benchmark.rb, line 352
def self.bench_performance_constant name, threshold = 0.99, &work
  bench name do
    assert_performance_constant threshold, &work
  end
end
            
bench_performance_exponential(name, threshold = 0.99, &work) click to toggle source

Create a benchmark that verifies that the performance is exponential.

describe "my class" do
  bench_performance_exponential "algorithm" do
    @obj.algorithm
  end
end
 
               # File minitest/benchmark.rb, line 367
def self.bench_performance_exponential name, threshold = 0.99, &work
  bench name do
    assert_performance_exponential threshold, &work
  end
end
            
bench_performance_linear(name, threshold = 0.99, &work) click to toggle source

Create a benchmark that verifies that the performance is linear.

describe "my class" do
  bench_performance_linear "fast_algorithm", 0.9999 do
    @obj.fast_algorithm
  end
end
 
               # File minitest/benchmark.rb, line 337
def self.bench_performance_linear name, threshold = 0.99, &work
  bench name do
    assert_performance_linear threshold, &work
  end
end
            
bench_range(&block) click to toggle source
 
               # File minitest/benchmark.rb, line 321
def self.bench_range &block
  return super unless block

  meta = (class << self; self; end)
  meta.send :define_method, "bench_range", &block
end
            

Commenting is here to help enhance the documentation. For example, code samples, or clarification of the documentation.

If you have questions about Ruby or the documentation, please post to one of the Ruby mailing lists. You will get better, faster, help that way.

If you wish to post a correction of the docs, please do so, but also file bug report so that it can be corrected for the next release. Thank you.
