NAME

App::Benchmark - Output your benchmarks as test diagnostics

SYNOPSIS

    # This is t/benchmark.t:

    use App::Benchmark;

    benchmark_diag(2_000_000, {
        sqrt => sub { sqrt(2) },
        log  => sub { log(2) },
    });

DESCRIPTION

This module makes it easy to run your benchmarks in a distribution's test suite. This way you just have to look at the CPAN testers reports to see your benchmarks being run on many different platforms using many different versions of perl.

Ricardo Signes came up with the idea.

FUNCTIONS

benchmark_diag

Takes a number of iterations and a benchmark definition hash, just like timethese() from the Benchmark module. Runs the benchmarks and reports them, each line prefixed by a hash sign so it doesn't mess up the TAP output. Also, a dummy test is being generated to keep the testing framework happy.

This function is exported automatically.
