WPT Results Analysis

This repository contains a set of scripts for doing analysis on results from runs of web-platform-tests uploaded to wpt.fyi. It utilizes a git repository, results-analysis-cache, as a storage and compression mechanism for the results data.

The analysis files are expected to be run via node, and should be independently documented inside the file.

gh-pages

Metrics are regularly updated and pushed to the gh-pages branch using GitHub Actions, see update_gh_pages.yml.

Setup

Run npm install; this will install any necessary dependencies and clone the results-analysis-cache repo locally.

results-analysis-cache repository

This repository stores results from WPT runs as a flat forest. Each run is an orphan commit with no parent, and is tagged with the run id. This allows for an excellent compression ratio, whilst still having reasonable lookup time.

The repository can be updated via git-write.js, though this happens automatically upstream (via a cronjob). As such, to fetch new runs you should just cd into the results-analysis-cache directory and run git pull.

Running the scripts

browser-specific-failures.js

$ node browser-specific-failures.js --help
Usage: node browser-specific-failures.js [options]

Options:
  --from: Starting date (inclusive)
    (default: "2018-07-01")
  --to: Ending date (exclusive)
    (default: "2020-05-21")
  --products: Browsers to compare. Must match the products used on 
    wpt.fyi 
    (default: ["chrome","firefox","safari"])
  --output: Output CSV file to write to. Defaults to {stable, 
    experimental}-browser-specific-failures.csv 
    (default: null)
  --[no]experimental: Calculate metrics for experimental runs.
    (default: false)

Generating end-of-year interop scores

The scores used on the current year of the Interop Dashboard are generated regularly from this repository. At the end of each year, the scoring script should be run to generate final CSV files to use as the static final numbers for that interop year. Both stable and experimental numbers should be generated.

$ node interop-scoring/main.js --year={{YEAR}} --to={{YEAR + 1}}-01-01
$ node interop-scoring/main.js --year={{YEAR}} --to={{YEAR + 1}}-01-01 --experimental

This will generate two files with final year numbers to use. These files should be added to the webapp/static directory of the wpt.fyi repository. The csv_url property should be updated for that year in webapp/components/interop-data.js to match the new file locations.
