# Performance Testing Algorithms User Manual
This user manual contains details on how to conduct automated performance tests. Work was mostly done in this [PR](https://github.com/apache/systemml/pull/537) and part of [SYSTEMML-1451](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SYSTEMML-1451). Our aim was to move from existing `bash` based performance tests to automatic `python` based automatic performance tests.
-### Architecture
-Our performance tests suit contains `7` families namely `binomial`, `multinomial`, `stats1`, `stats2`, `regression1`, `regression2`, `clustering`. Within these families we have algorithms grouped under it. Typically a family is a set of algorithms that require the same data generation script.

- Exceptions: `regression1`, `regression2` and `binomial`. We decide to include these algorithms in separate families to keep the architecture simple.

+## Operational Notes

All performance test depend mainly on two scripts for execution `systemml-standalone.py` and `systemml-spark-submit.py`. Incase we need to change standalone or spark parameters we need to manually change these parameters in their respective scripts.
Constants like `DATA_FORMAT` currently set to `csv` and `MATRIX_TYPE_DICT` with `density` set to `0.9` and `sparsity` set to `0.01` are hardcoded in the performance test scripts. They can be changed easily as they are defined at the top of their respective operational scripts.
