-# Benchmarks of Catch2
-
-This folder holds benchmarks for Catch2. It should not be built for the
-small(er) test sets, as it is only relevant for running (mainly runtime)
-benchmarks.
-
-Below you will find some practical examples using 
-[hyperfine](https://github.com/sharkdp/hyperfine) to determine the
-performance of various scenarios. They assume two parallel checkouts, one
-named `Catch2-old` and the other `Catch2-new`. You will need to change
-the paths to work on your own machine.
-
-
-## Runtime benchmarks
-
-The runtime benchmarks currently consist of few different `TEST_CASE`s,
-each with a simple loop over different assertion type. They are compiled
-into two binaries, one for assertion slow path and one for assertion fast
-path.
-
-
-### Assumptions and notes about real-world usage
-
-The basic assertion macro, `REQUIRE` (and `CHECK`) is the most common one,
-by far. Thus, it is the most important one to run quickly. It is probably
-followed by the matcher macro, `REQUIRE_THAT`.
-
-The most common result of an assertion is that it passes. Even if it is
-stringified and reported, that is most likely due to some listener/reporter
-that wants the string representation, not because it failed.
-
-The performance of both Debug and Release builds are important; users
-will run tests in both. LTO runtime performance is not too important,
-but compile time perf is.
-
-
-### Examples
-
-**Compare performance of `REQUIRE` in slow path, debug build**
-```text
-hyperfine --warmup 2 --shell none --parameter-list version old,new '/home/xarn/benches/Catch2-{version}/build-debug/benchmarks/AssertionsSlowPath -o /dev/null "REQUIRE"'
-```
-
-**Compare performance of `REQUIRE_THAT` in fast path, release build**
-```text
-hyperfine --warmup 2 --shell none --parameter-list version old,new '/home/xarn/benches/Catch2-{version}/build-release/benchmarks/AssertionsFastPath -o /dev/null "REQUIRE_THAT"'
-```
-
-**Compare performance of `REQUIRE` with stringification enabled, release build**
-```text
-hyperfine --warmup 2 --shell none --parameter-list version old,new '/home/xarn/benches/Catch2-{version}/build-release/benchmarks/AssertionsFastPath -s -o /dev/null "REQUIRE"'
-```
-_Note that we redirect the output to `/dev/null` to reduce the overhead of the actual output printing, to see just the impact of stringification._
-
-TODO:
-  * Start empty binary (set up cost base)
-  * Start binary with X (100/1k/10k) tests (test registration cost)
-  * Section tracking
-
-## Compilation benchmarks
-
-As tests are often iterated upon and relinked, the compilation cost of
-Catch2 is also important.
-
-
-### Examples
-
-**Compare overhead of including `catch_test_macros.hpp`**
-```text
-hyperfine --warmup 2 --shell none --parameter-list version old,new '/usr/bin/c++  -I/home/xarn/benches/Catch2-{version}/src/catch2/.. -I/home/xarn/benches/Catch2-{version}/build-debug/generated-includes -g -o /dev/null -c /home/xarn/benches/Catch2-{version}/benchmarks/only_include.cpp'

-# How to run specific section/generator
-
-> The generator and generic path filtering was added in Catch2 3.13.0
-
-Catch2 supports picking specific path through a test case by filtering
-sections and generator indices to run through. This is done by using one
-of the three commandline parameters, one or more times.
-
-```
-c, --section           <section name>
-g, --generator-index   <index in generator>
-p, --path-filter       <path filter spec>
-```
-
-All the variants form a shared stack of filters, but if you use only
-`-c`/`--section` form to specify section filters, you will get the old
-behaviour, which does not affect generators at all. If you also use either
-`-g`/`--generator-index`, or `-p`/`--path-filter`, you will get the new
-behaviour, which can also filter generator elements.
-
-Both the new and old filter behaviours include some potentially surprising
-things:
-  * Code outside of sections being skipped will still be executed. E.g.
-    any setup code in the TEST_CASE that lives outside of sections.
-  * Path filters filter the prefix of the path. So if you specify single
-    filter, it affects only the top level sections/generator, with their
-    child sections/generators being unfiltered.
-  * Path filters are independent of test case selection, Catch2 will try
-    to follow the path filters in all selected test cases. This means
-    that if you specify path filters without a test case filter, Catch2
-    will try to apply the path filters inside every registered test case.
-
-## Old behaviour
-
-> The old behaviour was deprecated in Catch2 3.13.0
-
-```
-c, --section           <section name>
-```
-The argument to `-c`/`--section` can be any arbitrary string. When Catch2
-is deciding whether to enter a section, it will check its trimmed name
-against the appropriate trimmed section filter. If they are the same,
-the section can be opened. If not, Catch2 will skip over that section.
-
-
-### Examples
-
-#### Simple section nesting
-Given
-```cpp
-TEST_CASE( "foo" ) {
-    REQUIRE( true );
-    SECTION( "A" ) {
-        SECTION( "A1" ) { REQUIRE( true ); }
-        SECTION( "A2" ) { REQUIRE( true ); }
-    }
-    SECTION( "B" ) {
-        SECTION( "B1" ) { REQUIRE( true ); }
-        SECTION( "B2" ) { REQUIRE( true ); }
-    }
-}
-```
-
-* `./tests foo -c A` runs section "A" and both of its subsections,
-   resulting in 4 assertions.
-* `./tests foo -c A -c B` runs section "A", but none of its subsections,
-   resulting in 1 assertion (the one before "A").
-* `./tests foo -c A -c A1` runs section "A" and only the "A1" subsection,
-   resulting in 2 assertions.
-
-
-#### Sections with nested generators
-Note that old behaviour completely _ignores_ generators. This means both
-that they can't be filtered, but also that they aren't taken into account
-for the filter depth. In other words, given
-```cpp
-TEST_CASE( "bar" ) {
-    REQUIRE( true );
-    SECTION( "A" ) { REQUIRE( true ); }
-    SECTION( "B" ) {
-        auto i = GENERATE( 1, 2, 3 );
-        DYNAMIC_SECTION( "i=" << i ) {
-            REQUIRE( true );
-        }
-    }
-}
-```
-* `./tests bar -c A` results in 2 assertions.
-* `./tests bar -c B -c i=2` results in 4 assertions, because the whole
-  generator in section "B" has to be used up, but the dynamic section is
-  only entered when the generator returns 2 as the value for `i`.
-* `./tests bar -c B -c i=4` results in 3 assertions, because the assertion
-  outside of section is executed every time the test case is entered, and
-  the generator forces the test case to rerun 3 times before it is used up,
-  even though the dynamic section will never be entered.
-
-
-#### Section with sibling generators
-For cases where sections have sibling generators, the filtering can get
-even more surprising.
-```cpp
-TEST_CASE( "qux" ) {
-    REQUIRE( true );
-    SECTION( "A" ) { REQUIRE( true ); }
-    auto i = GENERATE( 1, 2, 3 );
-    DYNAMIC_SECTION( "i=" << i ) {
-        REQUIRE( true );
-    }
-}
-```
-* `./tests qux -c A` results in **4** assertions, because section "A" is
-  entered once, but the sibling generator has to be exhausted, and
-  the first assertion is executed once per generator element.
-* `./tests qux -c i=2` also results in 4 assertions. Once again,
-  the generator has to be exhausted and the dynamic section is entered
-  once.
-
-
-## New behaviour
-
-> The new behaviour was introduced in Catch2 3.13.0
-
-```
-g, --generator-index   <index in generator>
-p, --path-filter       <path filter spec>
-```
-
-The argument to `-g`/`--generator-index` must be either a non-negative
-number, which is interpreted as the index of the desired element from
-the generator, or "\*", which allows all elements from the generator.
-
-Providing index outside of the generator is an error.
-
-The argument to `-p`/`--path-filter` must start with either "c:" for
-a section filter, or with "g:" for a generator filter. Everything past
-the colon is then parsed as either a section filter, or a generator filter.
-
-Note that using `p`/`--path-filter` enables new filtering behaviour, even
-if it is only used to add section filters.
-
-There is another important difference between filtering out sections and
-generators. A section can be left un-entered, but a generator always has
-to be active. For this reason, if generator fails a filter
-(e.g. there is a section filter at given depth instead), it has to stop
-the execution of the test case. Currently, this is done via `SKIP()`
-equivalent, causing the section to be considered skipped.
-
-
-### Examples
-
-#### Nested generators
-```cpp
-TEST_CASE( "waldo" ) {
-    auto i = GENERATE( 1, 10, 100 );
-    auto j = GENERATE( 2, 20, 200 );
-    CAPTURE( i, j );
-    REQUIRE( true );
-}
-```
-* `./tests waldo -g 1` results in 3 assertions, with `i := 10`, because
-  the second nested generator is unfiltered.
-* `./tests waldo -g 1 -g 2` results in 1 assertion, with `i := 10, j := 200`.
-* `./tests waldo -g * -g 2` results in 3 assertions, all with `j := 200`.
-* `./tests waldo -g 1 -g *` results in 3 assertions, all with `i := 10`.
-* `./tests waldo -g 3` results in 1 **failed** assertion, because the first
-  generator does not have 3rd element.
-* `./tests waldo -g * -g 3` results in 3 **failed** assertions, as the
-  second generator does not have 3rd element, but we have to exhaust the
-  first generator.
-
-#### Generator with a nested dynamic section
-```cpp
-TEST_CASE( "grault" ) {
-    REQUIRE( true );
-    auto i = GENERATE( 1, 2, 3 );
-    DYNAMIC_SECTION( "i=" << i ) {
-        REQUIRE( true );
-    }
-}
-```
-* `./tests grault -p g:1` results in 2 assertions, as there is no filter
-  on the dynamic section.
-* `./tests grault -p g:1 -p c:i=2` results in 2 assertions, as the filter
-  on the dynamic section matches the element given from the generator.
-* `./tests grault -p g:1 -p c:i=3` results in 1 assertion, as the generator
-  is limited to only try `i := 2` and the dynamic section is filtered out.
-
-#### Section with a sibling generator
-Because generators have to stop test execution when they don't pass filter,
-it is impossible to run only a section with sibling generator without
-triggering a test case skip. Consider this test case from an earlier example:
-```cpp
-TEST_CASE( "qux" ) {
-    REQUIRE( true );
-    SECTION( "A" ) { REQUIRE( true ); }
-    auto i = GENERATE( 1, 2, 3 );
-    DYNAMIC_SECTION( "i=" << i ) {
-        REQUIRE( true );
-    }
-}
-```
-* `./tests qux -p g:1` results in 2 assertions, as the dynamic section is
-  entered only once.
-* `./tests qux -p g:1 -p c:i=1` results in 1 assertion, as the dynamic
-  section filter is incompatible with the generator filter.
-* `./tests qux -p c:A` results in 2 assertions **and a skipped test case**.
-  This is because the generator is sibling to section "A", and thus reads
-  the same section filter. However, it is not a section and as thus cannot
-  proceed.
-* `./tests qux -p c:i=2` results in 1 assertion **and a skipped test case**.
-  Once again, the first filter in the filter stack is a section filter,
-  and thus the generator cannot proceed.
-
-Compare this with the old filter behaviour, where `./tests qux -c i=2`
-would instead result in 4 assertions, because the generator would go
-through all elements.

-If you use generators to generate random inputs for testing, you might

-```
-This will set `input` first to "1", then to "2", and then to 10 random
-integers.

-    map( foo,
-         cat( value( 4 ), take( 10, random( 10, 10'000'000 ) ) ) ) );

-
-> Support for constexpr matchers was introduced in Catch2 3.15.0
-
-When compiled for C++20, the new-style matchers (can) support `constexpr`
-matching, albeit not `constexpr` stringification. The matcher combinators
-require C++26 (or at least P2738) to be `constexpr` compatible.
-
-This can be used together with the `STATIC_REQUIRE_THAT` macro to write
-matcher-based static assertions like this:

-```cpp
-TEST_CASE("Constexpr support for matchers", "[constexpr][matchers]") {
-    STATIC_REQUIRE_THAT( 1, MatchAll() );

-Some (but not all) of Catch2's generic matchers support `constexpr`

-* `SizeIs(size_t target_size)`, `SizeIs(Matcher size_matcher)`
-* `AllMatch(Matcher element_matcher)`

-  * Custom generators that can jump forward efficiently should override `skipToNthElementImpl`
-* Generators can declare themselves infinite
-  * The generator base defaults to declaring itself finite for backwards compatibility
-  * Custom generators should override `isFinite()` to return the proper value
-* Added `--warn InfiniteGenerators` to error out on `GENERATE` being given an infinite generator
-* Extended options for section filtering from CLI to include generators
-  * The user can specify which element from the generator to use in the test case
-  * See documentation for how the new filters work and how they can be specified
-* `MapGenerator` only calls the mapping function if the output will be used

-## 3.12.0
-
-### Fixes
-* Fixed unscoped messages after a passing fast-pathed assertion being lost.
-* Fixed the help string for `--order` to mention random order as the default. (#3045)
-* Fixed small documentation typos. (#3039)
-* Fixed compilation with `CATCH_CONFIG_THREAD_SAFE_ASSERTIONS` for older C++ standards.
-* Fixed a thread-safety issue with message macros being used too early after the process starts.
-* Fixed automatic configuration to properly handle PlayStation platform. (#3054)
-* **Fixed the _weird_ behaviour of section filtering when specifying multiple filters.** (#3038)
-  * See #3038 for more details.
-
-### Improvements
-* Added `lifetimebound` attribute to various places.
-  * As an example, compiler that supports lifetime analysis will now diagnose invalid use of Matcher combinators.
-* Minor compile-time improvements to stringification. (#3028)
-  * `std::tuple` printer does not recurse.
-  * Some implementation details were outlined into the cpp file.
-* Global variables will only be marked with `thread_local` in thread-safe builds. (#3044)
-
-### Miscellaneous
-* The thread safety support is no longer experimental.
-  * The new CMake option and C++ define is now `CATCH_CONFIG_THREAD_SAFE_ASSERTIONS`.

-## 3.11.0
-
-### Fixes
-* Fixed building on non-desktop GDK platforms (#3029)
-* Fixed message macros being susceptible to race in specific scenario (#3031)
-* Catch2's SEH filter will call the previously installed filter after reporting the error (#3033)
-
-### Improvements
-* Handling of scoped messages (e.g. `CAPTURE`) is a bit faster.
-* Better out-of-the-box support for QNX (#2953)
-* Improved performance of assertions by up-to 10%
-  * Release mode assertion fast-path sees the biggest improvement.
-* Faster processing of non-escaped strings in `--invisibles` mode.
-* Added support for Bazel's `TEST_RANDOM_SEED` env var (#3021)
-* Added support for Bazel's `TEST_PREMATURE_EXIT_FILE` env var (#3020)
-  * This creates a file that is deleted if the tests exit normally, but stays around if the process dies unexpectedly.
-  * This functionality is also exposed through CLI as `--premature-exit-guard-file`
-
-### Miscellaneous
-* **[Tuple.app](https://tuple.app/catch2) has sponsored Catch2**

 * Use BDD-style Given-When-Then sections as well as traditional unit test cases.
