await run({ throw: true }); // will immediately throw instead of handling error quietly
Out of box mitata can detect engine/runtime it's running on and fall back to using alternative non-standard I/O functions. If your engine or runtime is missing support, open an issue or pr requesting for support.
With other benchmarking libraries, often it's quite hard to easily make benchmarks that go over a range or run the same function with different arguments without writing spaghetti code, but now with mitata converting your benchmark to use arguments is just a function call away.
import { bench } from 'mitata';
bench(function* look_mom_no_spaghetti(state) {
const len = state.get('len');
const len2 = state.get('len2');
yield () => new Array(len * len2);
})
.args('len', [1, 2, 3])
.range('len', 1, 1024) // 1, 8, 64, 512...
.dense_range('len', 1, 100) // 1, 2, 3 ... 99, 100
.args({ len: [1, 2, 3], len2: ['4', '5', '6'] }) // every possible combination
For those who love doing micro-benchmarks, mitata can automatically detect and inform you about optimization passes like dead code elimination without requiring any special engine flags.

with mitata’s ascii rendering capabilities, now you can easily visualize samples in barplots, boxplots, histograms, and get clear summaries without any additional tools or dependencies.

In case you don’t need all the fluff that comes with mitata or just need raw results, mitata exports its fundamental building blocks to allow you to easily build your own tooling and wrappers without losing any core benefits of using mitata.
import { B, measure } from 'mitata';
// lowest level for power users
const stats = await measure(function* (state) {
const size = state.get('x');
yield () => new Array(size);
}, {
args: { x: 1 },
batch_samples: 5 * 1024,
min_cpu_time: 1000 * 1e6,
});
// explore how magic happens
console.log(stats.debug) // -> jit optimized source code of benchmark
// higher level api that includes mitata's argument and range features
const b = new B('new Array($x)', state => {
const size = state.get('x');
for (const _ of state) new Array(size);
}).args('x', [1, 5, 10]);
const trial = await b.run();
