Bencher

Bencher is a continuous benchmarking platform designed to integrate directly into your development workflow, specifically within your Continuous Integration (CI) pipelines. Its primary goal is to help development teams proactively identify and prevent performance regressions before they ever reach production environments. By automating the process of running benchmarks and analyzing their results, Bencher ensures that performance remains a key consideration throughout the software development lifecycle.

The tool works by allowing you to run your existing benchmarks, whether locally or in CI, using your preferred benchmarking tools. The `bencher` CLI acts as a wrapper, capturing and storing the results. These results are then tracked over time within the Bencher web console, where you can monitor, query, and graph performance data based on specific source branches and testbeds. Bencher employs state-of-the-art, customizable analytics to automatically detect performance regressions, providing early warnings and enabling teams to address issues efficiently.
