Hi,
I would like to execute some performance test with Boost.Build. Is there a way to force the execution of the tests without building the executables?
You should be able to do this:
exe hello : hello.cpp ; run-output hello.output : hello ; time hello.time : hello.output ;
The first metatarget just builds exe, as usual. The second runs the executable (capturing the output). The third records the time spend to run the executed.
You might need to 'import testing ; ' on top.
Are there some examples of performance tests for some Boost libraries?
I am not aware of such.
Hope this helps,
Thanks ofor the hint. I didn't know run-output and time. Are these commands documented?
Unfortunately not.
This allows me to get the time but in order to get again the time I need to force to build all with -a. I would like to build all the executables targets, and then be able to run performance tests several times.
BTW, I need to pass some args when running the program. I do this now as
