So to test the performance of a web page, you have to do the following steps:
- First open the webpage on your browser.
- Then right click anywhere on the page.
- Select Inspect.
- A small window opens up on either the right side or bottom of the screen.
- On this window, choose the tab called Lighthouse.
- Then select either mobile or desktop.
- Then select Analyze page load.
- The performance of the page will be displayed in few seconds.
- Other values like SEO, accessibility, etc will also be shown.
- Make sure that you stay on the webpage when the page is being analyzed by Lighthouse and don't navigate away until you get the results.
- Sometimes the performance percentage might be affected by certain issues and so you have to test the page in an incognito window.
