durationMeasure

Description

This step is used to measure the duration of a set of steps, e.g. a certain stage. The duration is stored in a Map. The measurement data can then be written to an Influx database using step influxWriteData.

!!! tip Measuring for example the duration of pipeline stages helps to identify potential bottlenecks within the deployment pipeline. This then helps to counter identified issues with respective optimization measures, e.g parallelization of tests.

Prerequisites

none

Pipeline configuration

none

Parameters

parameter	mandatory	default	possible values
script	no	empty globalPipelineEnvironment
measurementName	no	test_duration

Details:

• script defines the global script environment of the Jenkinsfile run. Typically this is passed to this parameter. This allows the function to access the commonPipelineEnvironment for storing the measured duration.
• measurementName defines the name of the measurement which is written to the Influx database.

Step configuration

none

Example

durationMeasure (script: this, measurementName: 'build_duration') {
    //execute your build
}
