Given that Bundler 1.10 was released back in 2015, we can assume
that people are at least on this version or a higher one so there
is no need to ask people to upgrade.
Also, given that Rails 5.0 supports Ruby 2.2+ and given that this
version come with Minitest 5.4.3 bundled, we don't need to ensure
backward compatibility with Minitest 4.
This replaces boilerplate in the “benchmark your code” section of the
contributors’ guide with an executable template. I also amended the text
to encourage best practices and codified it in the template.
For now this is only good for relatively self-contained changes that can
be inlined into a simple script. In the future, this can be expanded to
cover how to measure the difference between two commits.
The output looks like this:
