This tutorial will show how to instrument a unit test DLL for performance profiling. Visual Studio will allow you to do performance profiling on individual tests (i.e. functions) in a test suite. This can be done in the user interface (i.e. UI or IDE). However if you have a unit test DLL that contains lots of unit tests or test methods, it’s apparently not possible to do performance profiling in the IDE.
Here was my original question:
I have a MS Unit Test DLL written in C# that targets a C++/CLI managed assembly. I have roughly 60 unit tests in that unit test dll. What I would like to do is run all the unit tests under the performance profiler, in the IDE. That is using the performance explorer to run a performance session for all the unit tests in my test DLL. I know how to do this from the command line, but I feel that is a last resort. I’d like to do this in the IDE if possible. It is possible to create a performance session for one unit test in the unit test DLL. The steps are listed here: ms-help://MS.VSCC.v90/MS.MSDNQTR.v90.en/dv_vsetlt01/html/4cc514d2-47bd-4f1c-a039-5ffae7c68bf1.htm i.e. Right click over a test result, and select "Create Performance Session". Whereupon the Performance Explorer will show a new session based off of one unit test. That’s great, but I’ve got 60 unit tests in my DLL. I don’t want to have to create 60 performance sessions.
Build the code that you will be testing. In my case it was the following DLL’s (Assuming a common root folder)
DLL name |
Description |
..\ManagedAPI\Win32\Debug\UnderstandWrapper.ManagedAPI.dl | The DLL with the code I wanted to test |
..\UnitTest\bin\x86\Debug\UnitTest.dll | This DLL contains my unit tests |
Then just to play it safe, run all the unit tests (This can be done in the IDE) in UnitTest.dll. It pays to be paranoid like this since if you want to detect bugs early and swiftly.
Now the strategy for profiling an entire DLL is to:
I instrument my DLL’s using the following batch script called: Instrument_ON.bat
The results of instrumenting it looks like this:

Successfully instrumented file F:\CodePlex\UnderstandAPI\Managed\UnitTest\bin\x86\Debug\UnitTest.dll. Press any key to continue . . .
I then turn on performance profiling using the following batch script called: Performance_ON.bat
The results of this batch scripts looks like this:

Press any key to continue . . .
The results of this script is it starts another process that will monitor any application that happens to be instrumented with performance profiling, or code coverage profiling. In our case it started a process called VsPerfMon.exe:
I then run all the unit tests in my DLL using another batch script. Now I have two build configurations (debug and release) so I have two batch scripts to run those: Run_Tests_Debug.bat and Run_Tests_Release.bat. Here is one of them:
Notice there the actual call to mstest.exe is what runs the unit tests. Notice that I piped the results of running the actual unit tests into a text file (i.e. results.txt). I did this because it gives me a more permanent record of how my unit tests did.
The mstest.exe file resides on my computer at:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\MSTest.exe"
The output, to the console window, of this script on my looks like the following:
Running Unit Tests Enabling VSPerf Trace Profiling of managed applications (excluding allocation profiling).
Current Profiling Environment variables are: COR_ENABLE_PROFILING=1 COR_PROFILER={6468ec6c-94bd-40d3-bd93-4414565dafbf} COR_LINE_PROFILING=0 COR_GC_PROFILING=0 Setting environment for using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 x86 tools. Press any key to continue . . .
Noticed I redirected the standard output (standard out) to a text file. The results.txt file looks like this:

Feels good to see all the unit tests pass. But now I have to save out the results of the performance profiling. And to do this, I now have to turn off the VsPerfMon.exe process that is running, and was running when I ran my unit tests.
I have a batch script that turns off monitoring and saves out a results file containing all the profiling goodness. Performance_OFF.bat
The results of this batch script looks like this:

Shutting down the Profile Monitor ———————————————————— Press any key to continue . . .
Now a new file is saved out to my computer:
F:\CodePlex\UnderstandAPI\Managed\Performance\ManagedAPI.vsp
Notice the name: ManagedAPI.vsp. This is the same name I passed in when I turned on the Performance Monitor. Remember this?
from: Performance_ON.bat
…
VsPerfCmd /start:trace /output:ManagedAPI.vsp
Now at this point, you can do two things:
I have a script that does this for me: Instrument_OFF.bat
When I run this, I get the following results in the command window:
Removing Instrumented Files Press any key to continue . . .
However, sometimes I do this only after I reviewed my performance results. Since the performance results display in visual studio may be dependent on the instrumented binaries to properly display its data.
Now that you have your .vsp file it is time to open it. The file ManagedAPI.vsp shows the following in visual studio:
From there you can analyze the results and find your performance bottlenecks.
