Description Ryosuke Niwa 2012-01-17 17:50:53 PST
Now that I've made a progress on webkit-perf.appspot.com, we're ready to start submitting data there. In order to do this, we need to have run-perf-tests generate a json file that summaries the results.
Comment 1 Ryosuke Niwa 2012-01-17 17:57:37 PST
Format:
{
  "password": "test",
  "timestamp": 1326851283,
  "revision": 104856,
  "summary": {
    "webkit_style_test": {
      "average": 100,
      "median": 102,
      "stdev": 5,
      "min": 90,
      "max": 110
    },
    "some_test": 54
  }
}

password: given per bot to avoid someone adversely reporting wrong values.
timestamp: the time test started running
revision: the webkit revision for which the tests were ran
summary: this is the main part of the json. It's a dictionary where the key is the name of a test and the value is either an integer (simple/chromium style tests) or a dictionary that contains average, median, standard deviation, min, and max values.
Comment 2 Ryosuke Niwa 2012-01-17 17:58:45 PST
If we end up having lots of tests and wanted to reduce the size of json, we can use an array (as supposed to a dictionary) for the webkit style test.

I'm changing my mind and renaming it to "results".

This isn't Python 2.5 compat, but I don't think you should worry about that.

Yeah, I'll worry about only if someone complains.

there is dependency cycle between port and host.
I've fixed it at r105263
