Benchmarks are run sequentially. // // For a description of the testing flags, see // http://golang.org/cmd/go/#hdr-Description_of_testing_flags. // // A sample benchmark function looks like this: // func BenchmarkHello(b *testing.B) { // for i := 0; i < b.N; i++ { // fmt.Sprintf("hello") // } // } // // The benchmark function must run the target code b.N times. // The benchmark package will vary b.N until the benchmark function lasts // long enough to be timed reliably. The output // BenchmarkHello 10000000 282 ns/op // means that the loop ran 10000000 times at a speed of 282 ns per loop. // // If a benchmark needs some expensive setup before running, the timer // may be reset: // func BenchmarkBigLen(b *testing.B) { // big := NewBig() // b.ResetTimer() // for i := 0; i < b.N; i++ { // big.Len() // } // } // // Examples // // The package also runs and verifies example code. Example functions may // include a concluding line comment that begins with "Output:" and is compared with // the standard output of the function when the tests are run. (The comparison // ignores leading and trailing space.) These are examples of an example: // // func ExampleHello() { // fmt.Println("hello") // // Output: hello // } // // func ExampleSalutations() { // fmt.Println("hello, and") // fmt.Println("goodbye") // // Output: // // hello, and // // goodbye // } // // Example functions without output comments are compiled but not executed. // // The naming convention to declare examples for a function F, a type T and // method M on type T are: // // func ExampleF() { ... } // func ExampleT() { ... } // func ExampleT_M() { ... } // // Multiple example functions for a type/function/method may be provided by // appending a distinct suffix to the name. The suffix must start with a // lower-case letter. // // func ExampleF_suffix() { ... } // func ExampleT_suffix() { ... } // func ExampleT_M_suffix() { ... } // // The entire test file is presented as the example when it contains a single // example function, at least one other function, type, variable, or constant // declaration, and no test or benchmark functions. package testing import ( "bytes" "flag" "fmt" "os" "runtime" "runtime/pprof" "strconv" "strings" "sync" "time" ) var ( // The short flag requests that tests run more quickly, but its functionality // is provided by test writers themselves.
