[Haskell-cafe] Benchmarking Framework
I am in the process of writing a library for my MSc dissertation and would like to do some benchmarking. In doing so I need to compare the time and space of my library with some other code. Is there a framework for doing so in Haskell, aside from the Profiling tools in GHC? Basically I'm looking for something like QuickCheck, but that helps with generating repeatable tests to measure performance. Is there anything out there that anyone would recommend? -- Tom Harper MSc Computer Science '08 University of Oxford Mobile: +44 (0)7533 998 591 Skype: +1 949 273 4627 (harpertom) ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe

I've hacked around with QuickCheck to run somewhat more predictable tests with timing results. It's not beautiful, but if it's any help: http://malde.org/~ketil/biohaskell/biolib/Test/QuickBench.hs ^ (the URL up until here + is the darcs archive, should you want to look at the whole thing in context) -k -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe

Also have a look at smallcheck (hackage) then. It has been announced on the haskell mailinglist recently; "SmallCheck is similar to QuickCheck (Claessen and Hughes 2000-) but instead of testing for a sample of randomly generated values, SmallCheck tests properties for all the finitely many values up to some depth, progressively increasing the depth used" Marc Weber ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
