Hello,

There are a lot of broken links in the documentation page under the section "12. MORE TESTNG READING".

Page URL - https://testng.org/#_more_testng_reading

Some of the example broken links:

TestNG and Excel - This website's connection is closed
TestNG in Python - Links to a broken github page redirected to 404 page
Converting a large codebase from JUnit 4 to TestNG - This redirects back to the website homepage instead of correct blog post.

There are a lot of more links pointing to spammy websites which at first glance appears that the domain might have been sold, repurchased and content topic got changed, leading the readers to spammy target websites.

I can also contribute towards fixing the issue if the recommended solution/action is suggested.

Hi,

Thanks for the report.

If you want fix it, I see 3 options:

  1. Update the link with the new working URL
  2. If no new URL, check if a backup exists on archive.org and use its URL
  3. If the link if definitely dead, remove it
