Find broken link in a webpage using selenium

Question

Is there a way to find broken links in selenium? Can someone explain me as how it is done?

Answer 1

You have to follow these steps to find broken images in a page using Selenium Web driver:

• get XPath and get the all links on the page using the tag name
• click on  every link on the page
• look for 404/500 in the target page title

This way you can either check for the broken links or store them in a file and use it for later references.

Hope this helps.
