Ruby Tests Profiling Toolbox

TestProf is a collection of different tools to analyze your test suite performance.

Why does test suite performance matter? First of all, testing is a part of a developer's feedback loop (see @searls talk) and, secondly, it is a part of a deployment cycle.

Simply speaking, slow tests waste your time making you less productive.

TestProf toolbox aims to help you identify bottlenecks in your test suite. It contains:

Plug'n'Play integrations for general Ruby profilers (ruby-prof, stackprof)
Factories usage analyzers and profilers
ActiveSupport-backed profilers
RSpec and minitest helpers to write faster tests
RuboCop cops
etc.
