  • Patent number: 11904238
    Abstract: A video game test system can determine an objective measure of elapsed time between interaction with a video game controller and the occurrence of a particular event within the video game. This objective measure enables a tester to determine whether a video game is objectively operating slowly or just feels slow to the tester, and may indicate the existence of coding errors that may affect execution speed, but not cause visible errors. The system may obtain the objective measure of elapsed time by simulating a user's interaction with the video game. Further, the system may identify data embedded into a frame of an animation by the video game source code to identify the occurrence of a corresponding event. The system can then measure the elapsed time between the simulated user interaction and the occurrence or triggering of the corresponding event.
