1219570 - Launch apps won't trigger the performance marks

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Metrics, defect)

Description

[Iris Hsiao [:ihsiao]]

Attachment: Telemetry_payload

### Description:
Launch apps will trigger the performance marks, like Dialer/SMS/Gallery.
contentInteractive 
navigationInteractive
navigationLoaded
visuallyLoaded
fullyLoaded
mediaEnumerated
scanEnd

### Steps:
1) Change the AT.REPORT_URL to your local machine's HTTP Proxy
2) Add these performance marks in your test app
    window.performance.mark('contentInteractive');
    window.performance.mark('navigationInteractive');
    window.performance.mark('navigationLoaded');
    window.performance.mark('visuallyLoaded');
    window.performance.mark('fullyLoaded');
    window.performance.mark('mediaEnumerated');
    window.performance.mark('scanEnd');
  Or git clone https://github.com/IrisHsiao/Telemetry-test-app.git
3) Install and launch the test app
4) Capture the compressed packages by Wireshark. And then download the POST request.
5) Modify the POST request: delete HTTP headers and save to a .gz file
6) Extract the .gz file and will get the JSON payload

### Actual result:
The performance marks did not be triggered

### Expected result:
The performance marks will be triggered

Hi Russ,

Can you take a look at this one?

Thanks,

Hi Iris,

From the logcat I can see performance mark metrics are being captured for dialer, sms, and gallery. Here is an excerpt for 'visuallyLoaded' [1]. So I can verify that performance mark metrics are being produced. Are you not seeing them in the POST data that you extracted?

[1] "DEVTOOLS_HUD_APP_STARTUP_TIME_VISUALLYLOADED":{"dialer":{"min":1,"max":5000,"histogram_type":1,"sum":1764,"sum_squares_lo":1557000,"sum_squares_hi

Hi Russ,

I can see the performance mark metrics are being captured now. But I also expect to see these logs[1] in logcat when Telemetry was enabled. How can I see these logs in logcat? Should I enable any options under Developer Tools?

That's a good question. The answer is -- bug 1193588 ("Developers should be able to enable and disable HUD telemetry logging using a pref."). So as of now, logging for "Enhanced" metrics, aka "telemetry", can only be enabled by changing the Developer HUD javascript and rebuilding gecko. I hope to address this bug before the 2.5 branch is created.

Iris, since there is a separate bug to enable telemetry logging (that is, logging of "enhanced" metrics), I will mark this as WORKSFORME based on comment 4.
