Unit Test Trace Analysis Data

In order to find performance changes at code level, Peass (https://github.com/DaGeRe/peass) uses unit tests as proxy for the performance of a software. The performance of a unit test may not change if the called source stays the same. Therefore, PeASS' regression test selection identifies which tests to execute. For further analysis of the performance changes, the changed source is analysed and methods, which are called and which contain source code changes, are extracted.

This dataset provides the results of the regression test selection and source code analysis of Apache Commons Compress, CSV, DBCP, fileupload, imaging, IO, JCS, numbers, pool and text and httpcomponents-core.

To execute the analysis, execute the following steps:

tar -xvf peass_metadata_commons.tar # extract folder
chmod +x getCalls.sh # Make script executable, since Zenodo provides scripts without x flag
./getCalls.sh # Execute analysis

This consumes a significant amount of hard disc space and contains long filenames; therefore execution on eCryptfs might yield problems.
