2. Setup

Lighthouse automatic can be found on npmjs.com.

To add to your project:

yarn add lighthouse-automatic -D

Or to install lighthouse-automatic as a cli app (global):

yarn add global ligthouse-automatic

3. Configuration

Configuration is handled by properties declared in your package.json file.

Note* If using lighthouse-automatic globally the tool will look for a package.json in the current directory.

In your package.json you can configure the tests as follows:

  "lighthouse-automatic": {
        "urls": [
            {
                "url": "https://www.webpage.com/",
                "pageName": "webpage-Homepage"
            },
            {
                "url": "https://www.webpage.com/search?q=**",
                "pageName": "webpage-Search"
            },
            {
                "url": "https://www.webpage.com/login",
                "pageName": "webpage-login"
            }
        ],
        "log": false
    }

See 5. Options for more configuration.

4. Run

run the lighthouse-automatic command.

I suggest adding to npm scripts (see example project scripts.start) for ease of use.

5. Results

Head to <your-project-directory>/lighthouse-reports and the test results will be available to collect.

Currently results are only reported in .json format

    {
        "url": "https://www.webpage.com/",
        "pageName": "webpage-Homepage"
    },
