Website Rot Link Tester

It would iteratively download all pages of a website (i.e., crawl the website) and try to access all URLs in the websites and record the HTTP status codes. If some links result in HTTP 4xx or HTTP 5xx error codes it will record those errors in a file. This can be used to test for link rot (i.e., outdated links that lead to no existing page).
