What we check

The audit is built for Magento. On Shopify, BigCommerce and custom PHP we check what each platform allows: where there is code, we review it; where there isn't, we focus on the front-end, apps and integrations.

Front-end speed

First Contentful Paint, Speed Index, Time to Interactive and input delay, on mobile and desktop.

Code quality

A SonarQube scan for bugs, vulnerabilities, code smells and security hotspots in custom code and modules.

Server-side performance

Page profiling: response time, memory, CPU and I/O, and how the store behaves under load.

Database and SQL

Slow and repeated SQL queries, and what to optimise first.

What's in the report

Based on a real audit, anonymised. Metrics are from the tools of that time.
