Using fprof with unit test - getting FunctionClauseError

Hi, I need profile a slow my function test in suite test.
I used the suggestion of Bryan Stearns (https://selfamusementpark.com/profiling-a-slow-elixir-test)
but it does not work if I have variable or function outside the scope.
My hex version is

System.version
"1.6.4"

I tried iex -S mix profile.fprof --no-compile -e “Mix.Tasks.Test.run([])”, it work but the out is for all my test.
I need profile a single test , i tried iex -S mix profile.fprof --no-compile -e “Mix.Tasks.Test.run([only: "test/test_only_profile_trest.exs"])”

but the output is:

Erlang/OTP 20 [erts-9.3.1] [source] [64-bit] [smp:4:4] [ds:4:4:10] [async-threads:10] [hipe] [kernel-poll:false]

    (mix) lib/mix/tasks/profile.fprof.ex:160: Mix.Tasks.Profile.Fprof.profile/2

My mistake where is?
The key “only” is true for task test.

Thanks in advance.
Paola.

I’m not sure how exactly you write the command into the terminal.

Therefore please try these exact commands (copy and paste) and then show us the full transcript when they fail and properly wrap everything into a codeblock, not only the output, but also the command.

iex -S mix profile.fprof --no-compile -e 'Mix.Tasks.Test.run(["test/router_only_profile_test.exs"])'
iex -S mix profile.fprof --no-compile -e 'Mix.Tasks.Test.run(["--only", "test/router_only_profile_test.exs"])'

You need to specify the list of arguments as if you were giving it at the command line:

Mix.Tasks.Test.run(["--only", "test/test_only_profile_trest.exs"])

Aside of that, --only filters based on @tags, you probably want to pass only the file to run tests from:

Mix.Tasks.Test.run(["test/test_only_profile_trest.exs"])

Finally, I do think you have a typo in the filename :wink:
