What?

Refactor the Site Editor performance tests to reduce flakiness and improve readability.

How?

  • Remove unnecessary waitForSelector calls,
  • Use better selectors that, e.g., help ensure the testing sequence is always typed in the same place,
  • Write the test results within the afterAll hook instead at the end of the test block,
  • Repeat the Loading tests with test.each instead of a while loop - every test will open on a new page anyway.

@youknowriad I was able to get the Site Editor perf failure screenshot from CI (see artifacts from this job), and this is what I have so far (from Typing test):

I have no idea what's going on there - where that title's from, why the content is empty, etc. Let me know if it rings any bell for you. I can't repro locally, so I'll keep debugging the CI.

FYI I've found the real reason for the performance failures and it's....ugly https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/48094/files#r1112904171

Iterate with it.each instead of while as the new page is already being created within the global afterEach hook.

this is great! also, to double-check: this won't re-use the page will it? I know we want to recreate the browser page each time. I suspect everything is okay, but I wanted to make sure we verify we aren't accidentally re-using a browser tab with this change.

The global afterEach that @WunderBart mentioned should take care of that.

Comment on lines +86 to +93
const resultsFilename = basename( __filename, '.js' ) + '.results.json';
writeFileSync(
join( __dirname, resultsFilename ),
JSON.stringify( results, null, 2 )

The results object contains data for both Loading and Typing tests, so let's write the file in the afterAll hook instead of the end of the Typing test.

is storing this file alongside the sourcecode the optimal choice here? I know I was confused when first storing results files as artifacts because of the directory structure. would we want to move these instead to our relatively-new __test-results directory?

we could consider some kind of TEST_RESULTS_BASE_DIR ENV to hold the base path if we wanted to avoid doing path-math everywhere: running in CI vs. locally in Docker vs. locally without Docker…

Agreed, we should be able to pass the __test-results path as an env variable and save directly there. Will give it a try.

edit:

OTOH, let's leave that for a follow-up PR. It touches all the other perf tests and I wanted to make this PR about the Site Editor ones only.

I've drafted the refactor in #48684, but I'm not sure how to handle the "locally without docker" situation. I think it still makes the most sense (as it's most convenient) to store alongside the sourcecode when running e.g. via npm run test:performance -- site-editor.

Let me know if that makes sense to you.

the main thing about colocating with sourcecode is that it leaves its mess distributed around the project. at least when creating a project-root-level __test-results directory it's easy to wipe that out in one command.

see for example challenges with the distributed build, build-styles, build-modules, and build-types directories in each package directory.

I'll add further remarks in the linked PR.

thanks! ✋

Clearing local storage on a page that we're about to close can throw error because the current context could be an iframe, not the top level document. Attempting to clear the LS in an iframe would end up throwing the `Failed to read the 'localStorage' property from 'Window': Access is denied for this document` error.
An `about:blank` page cannot have its LS cleared. It will throw `Evaluation failed: DOMException: Failed to read the 'localStorage' property from 'Window': Access is denied for this document.`

Why do we have sub describes and iterations within the same "test"? I find this a bit confusing personally. What benefits do we have from this change?

I don't have a strong opinion here, but it sometimes helps separate the concerns better. Like with the Loading block, it's easier to set up the it.each iterator below if it's wrapped with the describe block. Or in case of e.g. multiple typing test cases (like with the post editor perf specs - c1, c2), it would be more readable to group them with the decribe( 'Typing' ) block. Having said that, I'm open to flattening it back with a single, top-level describe.

I don't have a strong opinion either, but feel like whatever we do, it should be the same for all of our tests and there's already other suites using a single parent describe (post editor, classic theme, block theme)

Good point; consistency is king. I'll switch it to a single parent describe.
