Gradle Lighthouse Plugin

Runs Lighthouse tests on multiple sites / web pages with checking thresholds (useful on continuous integration, constant performance checking).

Installation

plugins {
    id("com.cognifide.lighthouse") version "1.0.0"
}

Configuration

Plugin organizes multiple sites to be tested into suites. Any web page could be checked with different threshold and Lighthouse configuration (e.g using performance budgets). Suites need to be defined in file with following format:

lighthouse/suites.json (plugin specific format)

{
  "suites": [
    {
      "name": "site.demo",
      "default": true,
      "baseUrl": "http://demo.example.com",
      "paths": [
        "/en-us.html",
        "/en-gb.html"
      ],
      "args": [
        "--config-path=lighthouse/config.json",
        "--performance=90",
        "--accessibility=90",
        "--best-practices=80",
        "--seo=60",
        "--pwa=30"
      ]
    },
    {
      "name": "site.live",
      "baseUrl": "http://example.com",
      "paths": [
        "/en-us.html"
      ],
      "args": [
        "--config-path=lighthouse/config.json",
        "--performance=90",
        "--accessibility=90",
        "--best-practices=80",
        "--seo=60",
        "--pwa=30"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

When using argument --config-path then it is also needed to have at least file:

lighthouse/config.json (documentation)

{
  "extends": "lighthouse:default"
}

Running

Underneath, Gradle Lighthouse Plugin is running Lighthouse CI multiple times in case of test suites defined (support for multiple paths under same base URL).

Available options:

  • run default suite(s): sh gradlew lighthouseRun,
  • run only desired suite(s) by name pattern(s): sh gradlew lighthouseRun -Plighthouse.suite=site.demo (if suites by name not found, default suites will be used),
  • run only desired suite(s) by base URL: sh gradlew lighthouseRun -Plighthouse.baseUrl=http://example.com (if suites by base URL not found, default suites will be used),
  • run only desired suite(s) with customized base URL: sh gradlew lighthouseRun -Plighthouse.baseUrl=http://any-host.com -Plighthouse.suite=site.live.

Note that after running one of above commands first time, new files might be generated:

  • package.json
  • yarn.lock

This is indented behavior - remember to save these files in VCS. If Lighthouse CI tool version need to be upgraded, just correct package.json file.

As a build result, reports under directory build/lighthouse will be generated:
