From slow to go: Rails test profiling hands-on Vladimir Dementyev
Evil Martians
palkan_tula palkan Why are we here? What's the plan? Who
are you? 3 Warming up Or waiting for everyone's dip rspec to pass
palkan_tula palkan You are here = = your tests are
slow 4
palkan_tula palkan Longer CI builds (also more expensive) Longer local
runs (or "local CI" builds) 5 Slow tests
palkan_tula palkan Longer CI builds (also more expensive) Longer local
runs (or "local CI" builds) Longer feedback loops More distraction, less productivity 6 Slow tests
palkan_tula palkan 🔍 Identify slowness causes and patterns 💊 Treat
them well 🔁 Repeat until satisfied 7 From slow to go
palkan_tula palkan 8
palkan_tula palkan Specialized profiler for Ruby test suites Optimization toolbox
to speed up tests with less refactoring 9 TestProf test-prof.evilmartians.io
palkan_tula palkan Used by GitHub, Discourse, Gitlab, Dev.to, and many
more Used by YOU at this workshop! 10 TestProf test-prof.evilmartians.io

palkan_tula palkan 14 X
palkan_tula palkan 15 Disclaimer: Mastodon team already did some test
performance work (via TestProf), so I had to revert a few optimizations in the workshop's version of the codebase (so we can have more fun)
palkan_tula palkan General profiling (Stackprof, Vernier, sampling) Focused profiling (TagProf,
EventProf) Factories overhead elimination (let_it_be) 16 The plan
palkan_tula palkan Local time: 8 : 30 ➡ 2 :
30 CI time: 14 : 30 ➡ 8 : 00 17 Results
palkan_tula palkan Rails tests occupy only for a portion of
a CI build time No need to optimize beyond other components 18 CI vs Rails tests
palkan_tula palkan General profiling 19
20
palkan_tula palkan Workshop instructions 21 # rails_helper.rb TestProf::EventProf.monitor( Paperclip::Attachment, 'paperclip.post_process',
:post_process )
palkan_tula palkan Workshop instructions 22 TAG_PROF=type \ TAG_PROF_FORMAT=html \ TAG_PROF_EVENT=sql.active_record,factory.create,
sidekiq.inline,paperclip.post_process \ be rspec
palkan_tula palkan Coverage: opt-out ➡ opt-in gem "debug", require: false
Webpacker: cache_manifest: true 23 Findings
palkan_tula palkan Logging—no effect when disk write is fast (SSD,
Docker volumes on Mac) Thousands of I18n YAMLs—handled by Bootsnap 24 Findings
25
palkan_tula palkan Do not require test-specific profiling skills Takes the
most significant amount of time (sampling helps) Highlights low-hanging fruits 26 General profiling
palkan_tula palkan Focused profiling 27
palkan_tula palkan Similar tests has similar problems Focus on most
time consuming test types, not individual outliers 28 Focused profiling
29
palkan_tula palkan Reduced the number of tests to analyze by
~2x Divided tests into smaller groups (~1min run time) for further analysis 30 Focused profiling
palkan_tula palkan TagProf EventProf RspecStamp (RSTAMP) 31 Tools
palkan_tula palkan Sidekiq: inline! ➡ fake! Paperclip::Testing.fake! 32 Findings
33
palkan_tula palkan Workshop instructions 34 # .rspec-local --tag ~paperclip:process
palkan_tula palkan 35 What's next?
palkan_tula palkan Factories 36
palkan_tula palkan 37 FPROF = 1 \ EVENT_PROF=factory.create \ be
rspec spec/models Workshop instructions
palkan_tula palkan Factory cascades Too many disposable records (no reuse
or recycle) Create vs. build 38 Factories vs. slow tests
39
palkan_tula palkan FactoryProf RSpecDissect before_all / let_it_be 40 Tools
palkan_tula palkan No cascades found Many tests share the same
context Reusing records between examples brings up to 6x speed up! 41 Findings
palkan_tula palkan Replacing let/let! with let_it_be works in ~90% of
tests The rest may require some refactoring (usually minor) 42 Findings
palkan_tula palkan Every file must be treated individually (routine) Extracting
shared contexts may help simplify future optimizations (e.g., adding fixtures) 43 Findings
palkan_tula palkan Homework 44
