I need to provide assurance over changes made to a site with 1000s of URLs.

What is the easiest way to do regression testing between a live and dev environment with the following structure?

 e.g.
 www.website.com/unique_web_page.html
 dev.website.com/unique_web_page.html

Need to do visual regression testing and capture any Javascript errors in console and any 404 assets.

Is there a third party tool that will do this that can be recommended? SAAS online?

Assuming I understand that you don't need any of the usual tools (e.g. Selenium), I would suggest to take a look at jsoup. The tool

provides a very convenient API for extracting and manipulating data, using the best of DOM, CSS, and jquery-like methods.

This question discusses how to deal with status codes.

As for visual validations you can turn to galen framework. It offers good syntax of checking the look and feel of the sites.

  • I checked out the link and it doesn't do the visual regression testing or record Javascript errors. – James Nov 09 '16 at 16:51
  • Ah I misunderstood what you need, so I updated my answer. Hope this time will be more of a help. – ekostadinov Nov 09 '16 at 17:52
  • Thanks for the update but none of those seem to capture javascript error messages and the console – James Nov 15 '16 at 21:10
