simple-benchmarking

A module for executing simple banchmarks for synchronous and asynchronous functions (a.k.a. promises). Please note that this should not be used for benchmarking production code. It is rather a good indicator how long certain functions take in order to improve them in terms of execution time.

Installation

npm i simple-benchmarking

Usage

const benchmark = require('simple-benchmarking');
const database = require('...');

const execute = async () => {
  await benchmark.executeSuite({
    'no arguments': {
      method: database.methodToTest()
    },

    'string argument': {
      method: database.methodToTest('random string')
    },

    'async method': {
      method: database.asyncMethodToTest()
    }
  }, {
    sort: true,
    rounds: 10000,
    name: 'Test Suite 01'
  });
};

execute();

This produces the following output:

 Executing test suite 'Test Suite 01'
