How to Test 60000 redirects

From Case 00137762

Note this is automatable (I am 99% sure) via a script. Here is a proof of concept in Ruby.

  • 1. For each of the approximately 6100 rows in the spreadsheet at:
    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1bqoCUqsCvdrGTXssavzdadTRF38l8JoIjuEJxqc2QiU/edit#gid=277128454
    • A. Please test the redirection of the links in Column D to the Target URL in Column G as follows:
      • i) In the URL from Column D "Redirect this Link" e.g. row 2 https://support.mozilla.org/kb/insecure-password-warning-firefox-ach
        replace support.mozilla with support-stage.allizom e.g. row 2, Column D ->
        https://support-stage.allizom.org/kb/insecure-password-warning-firefox-ach
        Let's call this URL 1
      • ii) Take the URL from Column G "Target URL" e.g. row 2 https://support.mozilla.org/t5/Protect-your-privacy/Insecure-password-warning-in-Firefox/ta-p/27861 Let's call this URL 2
      • iii) Load URL 1 in Firefox
      • iv) If Firefox redirects to URL 2, THEN test PASS ELSE test FAIL
