# Metrics Reports **[PREMIUM]**
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/9788) in [GitLab Premium](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing) 11.10.
|
||
|
|
Requires GitLab Runner 11.10 and above.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Overview
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
GitLab provides a lot of great reporting tools for [merge requests](../user/project/merge_requests/index.md) - [JUnit reports](./junit_test_reports.md), [codequality](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/merge_requests/code_quality.html), performance tests, etc. While JUnit is a great open framework for tests that "pass" or "fail", it is also important to see other types of metrics from a given change.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can configure your job to use custom Metrics Reports, and GitLab will display a report on the merge request so that it's easier and faster to identify changes without having to check the entire log.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Use cases
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Consider the following examples of data that can utilize Metrics Reports:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Memory usage
|
||
|
|
1. Load testing results
|
||
|
|
1. Code complexity
|
||
|
|
1. Code coverage stats
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## How it works
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Metrics are read from the metrics report (default: `metrics.txt`). They are parsed and displayed in the MR widget.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## How to set it up
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Add a job that creates a [metrics report](yaml/README.md#artifactsreportsmetrics-premium) (default filename: `metrics.txt`). The file should conform to the [OpenMetrics](https://openmetrics.io/) format.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For example:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```yaml
|
||
|
|
metrics:
|
||
|
|
script:
|
||
|
|
- echo 'metric_name metric_value' > metrics.txt
|
||
|
|
reports:
|
||
|
|
metrics: metrics.txt
|
||
|
|
```
