Run DLint on Benchmarks

Automated Evaluation

To make running experiments as simple as possible, DLint can be automatically applied to the SunSpider benchmarks, the Octane benchmarks, a set of locally installed web applications, and an arbitrary list of web sites. Each of these scenarios creates a directory, e.g., sunspider, with one subdirectory per benchmark/web app/web site, e.g., sunspider/3d-cube.js/. The subdirectory always has the same structure:

• src contains the uninstrumented JavaScript source code.
• analysisResults.json contains the warnings found by DLint.

Run DLint for all SunSpider benchmarks:

./scripts/dlint_sunspider.sh

To run DLint for the Octane benchmarks, for web applications, and for external web sites, some setup is required:

• For Octane and the locally installed web applications, start a HTTP server:

python -m SimpleHTTPServer

Run DLint for all Octane benchmarks:

./scripts/dlint_octane.sh

Run DLint on all web sites listed in tests/dlint/urls.txt:

./scripts/dlint_websites.sh
