Performance/Synthetic testing/Mobile phones

WIP

Setup the server

We use a Mac Mini to drive and run the phones. To get that to work we need the following software:

• NodeJS latest LTS (to be able to run sitespeed.io)
• ADB (to drive the Android phone)
• FFMPEG, ImageMagick 6, Python and pyssim to be able to analyze the video and get Visual Metrics

I've installed on two different servers and they have had different software. This is is from the latest install. You need to have homebrew installed.

Install NodeJS

brew install node@12

echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/node@12/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc

Install ImageMagick

brew install imagemagick@6

echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/imagemagick@6/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc

Install Pip and pyssim

curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py --output get-pip.py

python get-pip.py

python -m pip install --upgrade --user setuptools

python -m pip install --user pyssim

Install Pip and pyssim

brew cask install android-platform-tools

Install FFMPEG

Download a static build of FFMPEG 4.X and and add it to the path.
