+Running a performance test
+==========================
+
+You can run `perftest` locally or in Mozilla's CI
+
+Running locally
+---------------
+
+Running a test is as simple as calling it using `mach perftest` in a mozilla-central source
+checkout::
+
+    $ ./mach perftest
+
+The `mach` command will bootstrap the installation of all required tools for the
+framework to run, and display a selection screen to pick a test. Once the
+selection is done, the performance test will run locally.
+
+If you know what test you want to run, you can use its path explicitly::
+
+    $ ./mach perftest perftest_script.js
+
+`mach perftest` comes with numerous options, and the test script should provide
+decent defaults so you don't have to bother with them. If you need to tweak some
+options, you can use `./mach perftest --help` to learn about them.
+
+
+Running in the CI
+-----------------
+
+.. warning::
+
+    If you are looking for how to run performance tests in CI and ended up here, you might want to checkout :ref:`Mach Try Perf`.
+
+.. warning::
+
+   If you plan to run tests often in the CI for android, you should contact the android
+   infra team to make sure there's availability in our pool of devices.
+
+You can run in the CI directly from the `mach perftest` command by adding the `--push-to-try` option
+to your locally working perftest call.
+
+This call will run the fuzzy selector and then send the job into our CI::
+
+    $ ./mach perftest --push-to-try
+
+We have phones on bitbar that can run your android tests. Tests are fairly fast
+to run in the CI because they use sparse profiles. Depending on the
+availability of workers, once the task starts, it takes around 15mn to start
+the test.
