A pipeline must pass pre-deployment tests before it can be published to Livepeer

Before deployment, we conduct a 30s test using the Big Buck Bunny mp4. This test will fail if:

  • Any exception occurs

  • Output Frames-per-second (FPS) degrades from input FPS by 80% or more ((input FPS / output FPS) < 0.2)

    • 20% - 80% degradation is consider suboptimal and will incur a warning, but will pass pre-deployment tests

    • < 20% degradation is considered good, but developers should strive for ~0% degradation
