detecting-performance-regressions

## Overview This skill automates the detection of performance regressions within a CI/CD pipeline. It utilizes various methods, including baseline comparison, statistical analysis, and threshold violation checks, to identify performance degradation. The skill provides insights into potential performance bottlenecks and helps maintain application performance. ## How It Works 1. **Analyze Performance Data**: The plugin gathers performance metrics from the CI/CD environment. 2. **Detect Regressions**: It employs methods like baseline comparison, statistical analysis, and threshold checks to detect regressions. 3. **Report Findings**: The plugin generates a report summarizing the detected performance regressions and their potential impact. ## When to Use This Skill This skill activates when you need to: - Identify performance regressions in a CI/CD pipeline. - Analyze performance metrics for potential degradation. - Compare current performance against historical baselines. ## Examples ### Example 1: Identifying a Response Time Regression User request: "Detect performance regressions in the latest build. Specifically, check for increases in response time." The skill will: 1. Analyze response time metrics from the latest build. 2. Compare the response times against a historical baseline. 3. Report any statistically significant increases in response time that exceed a defined threshold. ### Example 2: Detecting Throughput Degradation User request: "Analyze throughput for ...
