Native app performance metrics

Native app performance metrics

This is a draft list of what we're thinking about measuring in Etsy's native apps.

Currently we're looking at how to measure these things with Espresso and Kif (or if each metric is even possible to measure in an automated way). We'd like to build internal dashboards and alerts around regressions in these metrics using automated tests. In the future, we'll want to measure most of these things with RUM too.

Overall app metrics

  • App launch time - how long does it take between tapping the icon and being able to interact with the app?
  • Time to complete critical flows - using automated testing, how long does it take a user to finish the checkout flow, etc.?
  • Battery usage, including radio usage and GPS usage
  • Peak memory allocation

NSHipster New Year's 2016

Greetings and salutations, NSHipsters!

As the year winds down, it's a tradition here at NSHipster to ask you, dear readers, to offer up your favorite tricks and tips from the past year as gifts to your fellow hipsters. With iOS 9, El Capitan, brand new watch- and tvOS's, and the open-sourcing of some minor Apple-related tech, there's bound to be lots to share.

Submit your favorite piece of Swift or @objc trivia, helpful hints, unexpected discoveries, useful workarounds, useless fascinations, or anything else you found cool this year. Just comment below!

If you need inspiration, try [the list from last year][2015], or [from the year before][2014], or [from the year before that][2013].
