TestCafe: Check for Images

Question

I am looking for a way to check if all img src from a specific page results in a 200. I got this script so far:

test('Check if all images exist', async t => {
    var images = Selector('img');
    var count    = await images.count;
    for(var i=0; i < count; i++) {
        var url = await images.nth(i).getAttribute('src');
        if(!url.startsWith('data')) {
            console.log(url);
            console.log(getHTTPStatus(url));
            console.log(await t.navigateTo(url));
        }
    }
});

Now we are able to read the src attribute and skip them if they start with "data" to avoid base64 images. If I use the navigateTo command now I see the image in the browser, but am not able to do anything else. Are you able to help me checking things?

To check that all image responses have 200 status, you can use TestCafe ClientFunction :

import { Selector, ClientFunction } from 'testcafe';

fixture `fixture`
    .page `https://www.google.com`;

test('Check if all images exist', async t => {
    var images        = Selector('img');
    var count         = await images.count;
    var requestsCount = 0;
    var statuses      = [];

    var getRequestResult = ClientFunction(url => {
        return new Promise(resolve => {
            var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();

            xhr.open('GET', url);

            xhr.onload = function () {
                resolve(xhr.status);
            };

            xhr.send(null);
        });
    });


    for (var i = 0; i < count; i++) {
        var url = await images.nth(i).getAttribute('src');

        if (!url.startsWith('data')) {
            requestsCount++;

            statuses.push(await getRequestResult(url));
        }
    }

    await t.expect(requestsCount).eql(statuses.length);

    for (const status of statuses)
        await t.expect(status).eql(200);
});

Or, you can use some addition module, for example, a request to simplify the code:

import { Selector, ClientFunction } from 'testcafe';
import request from 'request';

fixture `fixture`
    .page `https://www.google.com`;

const getLocation = ClientFunction(() => window.location.href);

test('Check if all images exist', async t => {
    var images          = Selector('img');
    var count           = await images.count;
    var location        = await getLocation();
    var requestPromises = [];

    for (var i = 0; i < count; i++) {
        var url = await images.nth(i).getAttribute('src');

        if (!url.startsWith('data')) {
            requestPromises.push(new Promise(resolve => {
                return request(location + url, function (error, response) {
                    resolve(response ? response.statusCode : 0);
                });
            }));
        }
    }

    var statuses = await Promise.all(requestPromises);

    for (const status of statuses)
        await t.expect(status).eql(200);
});
