Sus::Fixtures::Time

Sus::Fixtures::Time

Provides a convenient fixtures for time-related tests.

Development Status

Motivation

Time-related tests are notoriously flakey due to changes in hardware performance and software load. Typically, a test that measures duration will work fine locally, but fail on a continuous integration (CI) server. This is because the CI server is under load which results in significantly slower test execution times. This gem provides a mechanism to try and measure this overhead, and adjust the test expectations to account for it. This is done by measuring the time taken to perform a simple operation, and then using that as a baseline.
