How can we ensure energy data from KEcoLab are stable?

@sthak9 has some ideas.

"Ensuring KEcoLab Stability: Introducing Dedicated CI-Test"

https://eco.kde.org/blog/2024-04-12-sok24-energy-measurement-lab/

#KEcoLab is a KDE tool for measuring software's #energy consumption, but it needs robust testing to ensure stable functionality after code changes. Sarthak presents his work in Season of #KDE 2024 implementing dedicated test builds with #Kate test scripts.

Selenium automation for measuring software's energy consumption?

@prady0t wants to guide you!

Read about his Season of KDE 2024 work on documentation for #Selenium AT-SPI, including video guides for the #KDE community.

KEcoLab in Season of KDE 2024: Energy-Consumption Measurements In The CI/CD Pipeline

#KEcoLab is a tool enabling remote access to KDE's measurement lab in Berlin.

Season of #KDE contributor Aakarsh MJ (@aakarshmj) has worked on integration of KEcoLab into #Okular's pipeline. Thanks to his work, #energy reports can now be created with every new release!

KdeEcoTest on Windows? Yes 🚀

#KdeEcoTest is used for creating replicable scripts for measuring software's #energy consumption.

Season of #KDE contributor Amartya Chakraborty has extended its support to Windows.

KdeEcoTest creates scripts without requiring access to source code. Soon we can compare energy profiles of Okular vs. Acrobat!

Making way for Wayland in KdeEcoTest!

#KdeEcoTest is an automation and testing tool. It is used for creating usage scenario scripts to measure the #energy consumption of software.

Season of #KDE contributor Athul Raj K has added #Wayland support to the tool. Now it is possible to compare the energy demands of software on Wayland vs. X11!

KDE Eco has 5 new contributors in #SOK24 making the measurement of software's energy consumption easier and better integrated in the CI/CD pipeline!

https://mentorship.kde.org/blog/2024-01-15-sok-24-welcome/

Their work will help make  software more efficient and environmentally friendly, as well as more accessible.

Looking forward to what 2024 brings for KDE Eco. It will be a momentous year, with lots of big steps forward 🚀
