Record launch time

edit

Do these steps for at least two physical devices and record the results.

  1. Run the "App Launch" instrument in instruments. Hover over when the purple phase ends (pre-main time), record the miliseconds timestamp in table below. Hover over when the green phase ends (total time), record the miliseconds timestamp in table below. (Note: until 7.2.0, I did not record the green total time, which is why you see some missing values there).
  2. Do this for a fresh install and for upgrading from the current App Store app with some saved articles.

Run article load performance tests

edit

Currently we have some performance tests that are not set up to work with our build server / CI process. Until then, it's good to run these manually pre-release as a sanity check. The article loading performance tests are in ArticleManualPerformanceTests.swift. Run these on at least two devices from the Performance Testing scheme. Note that ArticleManualPerformanceTests.swift will stub out the network call with Nocilla, so it is a true native-only performance test.
