Performance as a First Class Feature with NBench
Explore the world of automated performance testing for .NET applications in this 54-minute conference talk. Learn about NBench, a framework designed to measure throughput, memory allocation, GC overhead, and more. Discover how NBench works similarly to unit tests, making it accessible for developers. Understand why traditional methods like code reviews are ineffective for detecting performance issues. Delve into the challenges of performance testing, including runtime dependencies and OS variance. Gain insights into performance lifecycle management and the importance of maintaining performance history. See practical demonstrations of NBench's API, various benchmark types, and how to implement performance tests in your projects. Equip yourself with the knowledge to make performance a first-class feature in your .NET applications.
