Step 3: Run a Website Audit

Find the Audit menu in the developer tools, select the options you wish to run an audit for, and click "Run audits"! 



View Your Results

Once your audit is complete, you can view the results right in the developer tools side bar. Some things to note: the performance can be affected by your internet connection speed.
