How to find broken links in a website
If you are testing web based applications, then it is necessary to find the broken links in the website.
Links which is not redirected to proper pages or not showing any output page is known as broken links.
Listed below are the online tools to find broken links in your application
1) http://validator.w3.org/checklink
2) http://htmlhelp.com/tools/valet/
Other than these tools there is one tool called “Xenu” also used to find the broken links. But you have to install it in your local system. Here is the link to download “Xenu”
http://www.softpedia.com/get/Internet/Other-Internet-Related/Xenu-Link-Sleuth.shtml
These tools will not give you all the broken links in your website. Normally manual testing of a application is far better than testing with the help of tools.
If you know more about the tools to find broken links, kindly write down in comments section or send an e-mail to me.

What is “character set” and how to test “Character Set”:
Character set: A defined list of characters recognized by the computer hardware and software. Each character is represented by a number.The ASCII character set, for example, uses the numbers 0 through 127 to represent all English characters as well as special control characters.
How to test Character set:
Scenario 1:
1) If you have admin rights for your web application, you can see an option for changing character set in main settings field. It will be normally displayed as “UTF-8”
2) Now Go to the site and change the UTF set in your browser via View--character encoding--more encoding--UTF-16
After choosing the UTF-16 check whether the texts in the site displayed properly or not?
Scenario 2:
1) Change the character set from UTF-8 into UTF-16 in admin and save changes
2) Now go to the site and change the UTF set and language to check whether site displays the texts properly or not.
To change language go to View--character encoding--Auto detect
Scenario 3:
1) After changing UTF character set in admin, check with the pop up’s and flash players in the site.
2) Sometimes change in UTF character set will results in pop up display and flash player display in the site (i.e.) pop up’s in the site and player will not display properly
Note: Test the above scenarios in all the major browsers.
