Work Description: topera commented on issue #482: LANG-1504 - Adding
steps feature to StopWatch
URL: https://github.com/apache/commons-lang/pull/482#issuecomment-569835131
> FYI, the conventional name for what you call "step" is "split", sometimes
also "lap" (less modern terminology.)
I didn`t know that, thanks for sharing :)
I take a look now and the StopWatch already has the **split** method, but
works in a different way.
Some differences:
1. With **split** we need to call **getSplitTime** while we are in the
middle of split (I mean, before calling **unsplit**). In the "steps" solution
we can get all times in a separated report, at the end of our performance test,
for example.
2. With **split** we can have just one split each time. With **steps**, many
3. With **steps** we can label each step with a name
4. Split counts the time since the StopWatch started, not the time between
splits.
Example
```
final StopWatch sw = StopWatch.createStarted();
Thread.sleep(100);
sw.split();
Thread.sleep(200);
sw.split();
Thread.sleep(400);
System.out.println("splitTime: " + sw.getSplitTime()); // returns
300: the time between start and latest split
System.out.println("time: " + sw.getTime()); // returns 700
```
So, my proposal is to use a new name no change the idea of the old split.
Possibilities: **lap** (as you said), **step**, **stage**

> Reporter: Rafael Santos
> Priority: Major
> Time Spent: 40m

>
> Would be great if we could use StopWatch to track times on many places of our
> code.
> I created a new feature called "*steps*".
>
> With this feature we can add label to each step and then get a report with
> time between each step.
>
> Example:
> {code:java}
> final StopWatch watch = new StopWatch();
> watch.step("starting");
> exampleGoSleep();
> watch.step("sleeping");
> exampleGoWalk();
> watch.step("walking ");
> exampleGoDance();
> watch.step("dancing ");
> System.out.println(watch.getStepsReport());
> {code}
> The output would be:
> {noformat}
> [starting] 0ms
> [sleeping] 235ms
> [walking ] 20ms
> [dancing ] 458ms
> {noformat}
