Leakage
A Node.js library for writing memory leak tests using Mocha or other test runners.
What is Leakage?
Leakage is a Node.js library for detecting memory leaks in JavaScript code through automated testing. It runs your code repeatedly, captures heap snapshots, and analyzes diffs to identify memory that isn't being garbage collected. This helps developers catch and fix memory leaks before they cause performance issues or crashes in production.
Node.js developers who want to ensure their applications are free from memory leaks, particularly those building long-running services, servers, or applications where memory stability is critical.
Developers choose Leakage because it integrates directly into existing test suites (like Mocha or Tape), provides both synchronous and asynchronous testing support, and offers detailed heap diff analysis to pinpoint leaks. It's a specialized tool that turns memory leak detection from a manual debugging task into an automated, regression-preventing practice.
