linktest is a tool to check all the links and resources a site points to are working. It helps detect broken links or incorrect src urls.
The program will crawl all the local webpages accessible and check that all links and resources return 200.
It can be used to check a static site, in which case linktest will start a
local server and crawl the site starting at /. This characteristic means it
can be used in your continuous integration server to check a jekyll or hugo
site has zero broken links and resources.
