Fixing Performance Regressions Before they Happen

The Netflix TechBlog

Every test runs on a combination of devices (physical and virtual) and platform versions ( SDKs ). While test metrics and metrics collected during real use do not lend themselves to direct comparison, measuring the relative change in metrics in pre-production builds can help us to anticipate regressions in production.
