    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-4430?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16495474#comment-16495474 ] 

Luke Cwik commented on BEAM-4430:
---------------------------------

What about documenting what runners need to do to integrate with the perfkit framework as the guide is written with users and IO authors in mind.

> Currently, the only documentation regarding IO Performance Testing can be found here: [https://beam.apache.org/documentation/io/testing/#i-o-transform-integration-tests]. This is certainly not enough given that the performance testing framework currently allows to run tests:
>  - on local or hdfs filesystems
>  - on direct or dataflow runners
>  - manually using integrationTest task
>  - automatically using performanceTest task
>  - using pkb.py tool directly (PerfKitBenchmarker)
>  - on demand from pending Pull Requests 
>  - detecting anomalies
>  - gathering results in dashboards
> All the above bullets (and maybe others - to be investigated) need more explanation in the docs to make the Performance Testing Framework usable by the broader community.
