01

Performance Auditing Services: Test Planning

Page Analysis: Each page on your site has a different performance profile. We will create a list of template types which will be tested. We will also work with you to compile a list of five (5) additional pages which we will test, based on analytics data and relevance of the most visited pages.

Connection Profiling: We will review your analytics data to determine the most common connection speeds (network profile) to test with.

Competitive Analysis: Identify 1–3 competitors to create an industry benchmark which your site will be compared against.

Staging Environment Configuration: In necessary, we will set up a staging environment which is a replica of the production environment for testing, so we may obtain the most accurate results.

02

Frontend Audit Services

Execute Tools: We will use automated testing services to generate baseline performance profiles for each control page identified within the Page Analysis.

Frontend Analysis: We will measure relevant performance metrics and manually review CDN configurations, expiry headers, data compression, HTML output, asset load order, asset minification and concatenation, and media (e.g. images) optimization to determine each element’s impact on performance.

Asset Inventory: We will inventory the assets loaded on each page and categorize them, to demonstrate the impact that various asset categories may have on site speed.

03

Backend Audit Services:

Server Configuration & Architecture Analysis: We will review your infrastructure for possible configuration optimizations.

Install Profiling Tools: We will install profiling tools (e.g. NewRelic) in production and staging to aid in the analysis of backend performance.

Page/Template Profile: We will profile each control page identified within the Page Analysis to identify possible optimizations in backend code or database queries. These pages will be tested with the Magento Full Page Cache both enabled and disabled.

Extension Audit: We will inventory the extensions which are installed on our site. We will disable extensions one at a time, test each to determine the performance impact of individual extensions.

Performance Budgeting Services: Work with your team to determine the baseline performance metrics which, and create a Performance Budget using automated tooling to measure performance over time.
