Perf suite

TIP

This is build/load benchmarking (untestutils/perf), not the e2e shared-prepare story. Optional peer — unit tests run on every PR; a tiny dogfood job is available via CI workflow_dispatch (run_perf). Not part of the 1.0 stability bar — see Roadmap. For CI speed of tests, see Why.

Builds reuse .output when the content hash of hashInputs (default: target root) matches — same idea as prepare cache.

Load

Prefer programmatic Artillery knobs (no YAML). Autocannon remains an optional single-URL tool for other suites; when both run, top-level LoadMetrics prefer Artillery and the console shows both rows.

import {
  definePerfSuite,
  consoleReporter,
  jsonReporter,
  buildArtilleryScript,
} from 'untestutils/perf'

export default definePerfSuite({
  runs: 1,
  verbosity: 'default', // 'quiet' | 'default' | 'verbose'
  coolDownMs: 500,
  postBuildDelayMs: 200,
  artifactsDir: '.untestutils/perf',
  reporters: [consoleReporter(), jsonReporter()],
  targets: [
    {
      id: 'app',
      root: './playground',
      build: { command: 'pnpm', args: ['exec', 'nuxi', 'build'] },
      start: {
        command: 'node',
        args: ['.output/server/index.mjs'],
        port: 10000,
      },
      load: {
        // Knobs → in-process Artillery script (paths, phases, maxVU)
        artillery: {
          durationSec: 10,
          arrivalRate: 40,
          maxVusers: 40,
          warmUpSec: 2,
          paths: ['/', '/page', '/ru'],
        },
        // Optional single-URL hammer (shows as a separate AC row in the console):
        // autocannon: { connections: 10, durationSec: 5 },
      },
    },
  ],
  thresholds: { buildTimeSec: 120, responseTimeP95: 500 },
})

Console output

Progress goes through one PerfUi renderer (consoleReporter):

• default — target header, build/start/load phase lines, filtered build logs, result block, summary table
• quiet — one line per target + summary
• verbose — plus Artillery phase names and server stdout

Cache hits print build cache hit / cached (no fake RSS 0 MB). Busy ports print start :bound (requested in use) and the suite advances the next target from bound+1.

Peers

artillery: true uses defaults. { script } for a full inline TestScript. { config: 'file.yml' } still works but is legacy.

untestutils perf --config ./perf.config.ts
untestutils perf --config ./perf.config.ts --only app --skip-load
untestutils perf --config ./perf.config.ts --force-build

Optional peers (exact): autocannon@8.0.0, artillery@2.0.34 (in-process private core — version-locked). Install only what your suite enables. See calibration and Artillery verify.
