Automated Performance Regression Testing with Reassure

Today's Talk introduces Reacher, a performance monitoring tool for React and React Native codebases. It highlights the need for catching performance regressions early in the development process and identifies JavaScript misusage as a common source of performance issues. ReaSure, developed by Covstack, is presented as a promising library that integrates with existing ecosystems and provides reliable render time measurements and helpful insights for code review. Considerations for operating in a JavaScript VM are discussed, including JIT, garbage collection, and module resolution caching. Statistical analysis using the z-score is mentioned as a method for determining the significance of measurement results.
