#2517: Automatically check docs.buildbot.net/buildbot.net for broken links and
invalid HTML/CSS
------------------------+-----------------------

Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: major | Milestone: undecided
Version: 0.8.7p1 | Keywords: web
------------------------+-----------------------
It would be nice to setup automated tests that will check Buildbot web
sites for links integrity and validity of HTML/CSS.
Currently start page of [http://docs.buildbot.net/] has
[http://validator.w3.org/checklink?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fdocs.buildbot.net%2F&hide_type=all&depth=&check=Check#results1
broken link and unnecessary redirects] according to
[http://validator.w3.org/checklink W3C Link Checker].
[http://validator.w3.org/ W3C Markup Validation Service] reports errors
too on [http://docs.buildbot.net/].
I didn't found open source link checkers that can do offline checking (to
check HTML files on disk), but since at least http://docs.buildbot.net/
has only relative links (without mentioning docs.buildbot.net hostname),
it should be possible to start web server locally on Buildbot slave, serve
HTML files on it and check them using online link checkers, such as W3C
Link Checker (which can be installed and run locally, no internet
connection required). I think other HTML and CSS W3C checker can be run in
same way too.
