The workload supports launch time measurement of other uxperf workloads that
implement the ApplicationlaunchInterface. It takes a uxperf workload as a parameter
and helps to instrument the application launch time in two modes.
a)launch_from_background
b)launch_from_long_idle
The workload executes in two major phases.
1- Setup phase: clears initial dialogues on the first launch of an application.
2- Run phase: Runs multiple iterations of the application launch and measures
the time taken for launch. Iteration number can be specified as parameter applaunch_iterations.
Applaunch measurements are captured in the logcat file.
UxperfParser class is moved from the UxperfResultProcessor class into a new
python module in utils. This will help to use the UxperfParser even when
the result procesor is not configured.
Inorder to support application launch workload, a new interface is created
which has methods that need to be implemented by all workloads that
support application launch time instrumentation.
UiAutoUtility class added to support utility functions used for UiAutomation.
This class can help in refactoring some existing fucntionalities into utility functions.
Launch command generation is added as a utility class method which can be used
by workloads to construct their launch command from parameters passed.
All the uxperf workloads get some common package parameters.
These are moved to the parent class and a new method is introduced to fill
these parameter values. All the uxperf workloads can call this method to resolve
the package parameters.
Revent is terminated from WA via a 'SIGINT', therefore this means
that in order for revent to receive the signal and deal with it
accordingly, revent always needs to be listening on STDIN regardless of
the 'wait_for_stdin' flag.
On Android targets, WA collects device display information by running
"dumpsys window" during run initialisation. Previously, this was
redirectied into on-device file (under the working directory) and then
pulled from the target.
It looks like on Android-on-ChromeOS devices the redirect leads to an
"Unknown Error" and the resulting file is empty. To get around that,
this commit modfies the dumpsys command so that the output is collected
directly from the shell's stdout and then writen on the host.
Apkworkload setup phase performs many functionalities in
a single method that is broken down into short methods.
The split short methods can be called individually when
relevant use cases arise.
The summary energy metric was being calculated incorrectly. Instead of
dividing power by the sampling rate, it was being multiplied by it and
divided by a million for some reason.
Skype has a unique launch command which is called in the setup
phase of the workload. The launch command is split into a stand alone
method which can be called as a separate method if required.
This can be used as common method if more applications in future
require their own customized launch command.
Log time changed to produce epoch time in milli seconds.
Nano to milli second conversion done in uxperf result
processor is removed.
Tested on Mate8 and time obtained is verified.
perf instrument was forcing killall() to run as root on Android devices.
This constraint was preventing perf from being used on unrooted devices.
However, it appears that it is possible for killall() to succeed on at
least some devices as a regular user.
This commit removes the constraint. Since killall() will default to
running as root whenever possible, the instrument will still behave
correctly on rooted Android devices where root is required.
``get-assests.py`` is not a valid python module name therefore it has been
renamed to ``get_assests.py``, the command however remains with the same name.
Changed the `files` parameter to be mandatory and added check to
ensure that at least one file is passed in configuration otherwise
the instrument crashes.
Commands have been updated to use the busybox executable that
is installed via WA rather than relying on it already being in
PATH on the device as this would fail for devices that it was
not installed on.
Android marshmallow uses a different default view for logcat
therefore prevented output from being extracted. The regex
expression has been updated to include matching the new format.
Added tagName to give unique logger name for multiple share attempts. Turn off markers_enabled for subclasses
Renamed multiapp to appshare. Description is now more accurate
Changed appshare to use class instances for each sub workload. This allows APKs to be setup correctly on the device
Photos changed function name
