+# Run Google Page Speed against Websites that are behind Basic Authentication.
+
+This is a nifty way to test environments that are live, but live behind Basic Authentication.
+
+## Installation
+
+1. Download [ngrok](http://ngrok.com).
+1. Install this node application
+
+## Configuration
+
+For a user `admin` with the password `admin` at http://staging.mywebsite.com`, you would update the following:
+
+1. Edit `proxy.js` and rename the following placeholders
+1. `<your website>` to `http://staging.mywebsite.com`
+1. `<your username>` to `admin`
+1. `<your password>` to `admin`
+
+## Usage
+
+1. `$ npm i` (server will now be running on `localhost:3000`)
+1. Run ngrok: `$ ngrok http localhost:3000` which spins up an ngrox proxy to localhost (which points to your website)
+1. Copy the URL in the first "Forwarding" propery below.
+1. Paste it in this page - https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/
