KEcoLab is an automation tool that allows KDE developers to remotely measure the energy consumption of their KDE software through GitLab CI/CD. Instead of obtaining measurements manually and in person in a lab such as the one at KDAB, Berlin, KDE developers can trigger the process through GitLab CI/CD, wherever they are. This enables developers to effortlessly assess their software's energy consumption when merging new code into the codebase.
KEcoLab opens the door for data-driven software development that prioritizes energy efficiency, while also making it easy to obtain the reports needed for certifying software with the Blue Angel ecolabel, the official environmental label of the German government.
