Welcome to the latest edition of the Performance Testing Newsletter! The PerfTools team empowers engineers with tools to continuously improve the performance of Mozilla products.
During MozWeek, we’ll be doing an interactive workshop titled “Help! I made a performance regression, what do I do?” on Tuesday, August 13th from 3:00-3:30PM. It will provide you with an overview of what you should do when you cause a performance regression. On the same day, this will be followed by a workshop from the Profiler team on in-depth profiler usage titled “Everyone’s a Performance Engineer”. These workshops are limited to 30 people each. Bring your laptop so you can follow along, and we look forward to seeing you there! See below for highlights from the changes made in the last quarter.
