Testing Energy Consumption on iOS

Prerequisites

Xcode (9.x), cmake, docker, git

1. Testing status-go

Native simple wrapper for status-go for iOS and Android.

Used for testing energy efficiency of status-go on a device itself.

1.1. Building iOS Wrapper

1. Check-out the latest status-go
2. set environment variable $STATUS_GO_HOME
3. make statusgo-ios
4. open ios/status-go-tester/status-go-tester.xcodeproj
5. You are ready to measure!

1.2. Measuring Energy Efficiency

‼️ you should use Wifi debugging to be able to trace energy consumption! Here's how to enable it: Enable Wireless Builds

1. Run the app with Xcode
2. Go to the Debug Navigator (press ⌘+7)
3. Go to the "Energy" tab.

2. Testing Status app

‼️ Make sure that your device is added to the Status provisioning profile list and you downloaded/installed this provisioning profile in your Xcode. If you don't have it, you can workaround it but push notifications won't work.

Now it's time to measure battery consumption while performing a test / experiment. To get an idea what kind of test you should perform, check types of experiments

1. Checkout the branch of status-react you want to test.

2. Update your toolkit with make setup

3. Build a release version make release-ios

4. Open the workspace in Xcode open ios/StatusIm.xcworkspace/

5. Select your device & press "Product->Run".

6. Listen to the music of the fans of your computer.

7. Go to the Debug Navigator (press ⌘+7)

8. Go to the "Energy" tab.
