How to find broken links & Images using Selenium Webdriver

[@bindunagaraj123]

Very nicely explained, But I think here u showed only broken links, not broken images, as we just checked href is not null and didn't check for src. Got addicted to ur channel Naveen, learning many things from u. Thank you for sharing ur knowledge.

[@mohmashooqdowlati7933]

Thanks Naveen. This was an outstanding concept clearance video for broken links!!!👏👏👏

@Shivanshu Sharma ArrayList is a class which implements List interface.This Arraylist is used to store list of elements of some type .So here we are finding list of webelement Array List .Since we are using findElements it returns multiple WebElements ..

[@21suhana]

Hello Naveen, Thank you so much for doing excellent work..I've a requirement where I've to verify if all the links are working or if there is any broken links (404,500, etc)..I tried your code but unfortunately, it isn't working as it is supposed to.. I know few links have ISE(500) error and it still displays "Ok" message..Any lead to this would be highly appreciated..

Hi Naveen.Thanks a lot for all learning videos. Im new to Java. I was following all the steps under this playlist. But somehow my TestNG is not working properly. I downloaded idk 17.0.1 version, selenium 4.0.0, is that's the issue? I noticed Selenium 4.0.0 version command are little different that you showed. What should I do this case. Also want to know is there any difference way I should do code my TestNG on Selenium 4.0.0 Please help me

[@bipulhaldar2572]

Well Naveen I did not understand how you got 'href' property of 'img' element? As far as my understanding goes, 'img' elements do not support the 'href' or hyper-reference. The 'img' supports the 'src' property which is a link to the location where the image is to be found. Also to check whether the link to the 'img' element is broken or not we have the check the 'src' property and check whether it is returning an image or not.

[@KOTHAABHISHEK]

Actually no need to search about img tag Because if we want to add a link we will use anchor tag only For image also we will use anchor tag only For example If we are getting a tag so automatically it will search this image link also.

Hello Sir , there is one problem. It works but i need to do on a specific page . And it catches more url's than there is on that page by "a" tag name . Any thoughts what it might be related to ?

[@magheshsingaravelu2114]

One small clarification for img tag we need to take src attribute and for anchor tag we need to take href attribute is that correct?.

[@bindunagaraj123]

[@praneethchakri7052]

Thank you Naveen..

[@loquesea187]

Nice vid !!. One question, I am new to selenium but so far all the video tutorials Ive seen, always use a loop to get certain elements, why is that? it is better performance wise? Asking that because you can get all the "a" and "img" that has a href attribute with one cssSelector: a[href],img[href].

Hi Naveen, code is able to find in git.. could you upload?

[@monil.joshi4]

How to do it recursively. One link has 10 other links inside it.

[@Nandhis]

are the links separated using any delimiters?

[@monil.joshi4]

@@Nandhis I am talking about nested links.. like if you go through aws or Android documentation you can see there are multiple hyperlink on the same page. So if I sum it up I am redirecting to home page then it 100 links out of which I navigate to first one it has another 50 links again I take first one out of 50 and it has some 20 links So how can I traverse and validate these 20 links then 50 links and validate same for rest of 99 out of 100 links

[@Nandhis]

@@monil.joshi4 i got your point. Selenium will access only current page's web elements. It can't access recursively from other links like how you have mentioned. If you would like to do so, you need to open each link in new window/tab and then verify. That is going to be very tough for you. Instead, if you have access to your application's all APIs and if you could get all the links, that will be easier for you. Thanks!

[@arpitasmruti8247]

Hi Am getting Stale element reference exception Can anybody please help me out?

[@sanjayym4503]

Stale (State is nothing but something not fresh) element reference exception occurs because of AJAX components / some time those components / elements get refreshed within the page that in turn generates new id . Here, Id is not normal id which you use for finding web elements. Just surround the code with try-catch block and re-identify the same element / object in the catch block then perform the action.

[@rockingrajashree1108]

Hi naveen.. Can you please explain how to click on all elements present in website????
