Previously, quality checks were mistakenly configured to run only on
Ubuntu.
This commit modifies the CI/CD workflow to use the matrix strategy,
allowing the quality checks to be executed on macOS, Ubuntu and Windows.
Additionally, this update resolves the `MD034/no-bare-urls Bare URL
used` linting error that surfaced when testing on Windows.
This commit improves the URL health checking mechanism to reduce false
negatives.
- Treat all 2XX status codes as successful, addressing issues with codes
like `204`.
- Improve URL matching to exclude URLs within Markdown inline code block
and support URLs containing parentheses.
- Add `forceHttpGetForUrlPatterns` to customize HTTP method per URL to
allow verifying URLs behind CDN/WAFs that do not respond to HTTP HEAD.
- Send the Host header for improved handling of webpages behind proxies.
- Improve formatting and context for output messages.
- Fix the defaulting options for redirects and cookie handling.
- Update the user agent pool to modern browsers and platforms.
- Add support for randomizing TLS fingerprint to mimic various clients
better, improving the effectiveness of checks. However, this is not
fully supported by Node.js's HTTP client; see nodejs/undici#1983 for
more details.
- Use `AbortSignal` instead of `AbortController` as more modern and
simpler way to handle timeouts.
- Move external URL checks to its own module under `tests/`. This
separates them from integration test, addressing long runs and
frequent failures that led to ignoring test results.
- Move `check-desktop-runtime-errors` to `tests/checks` to keep all
test-related checks into one directory.
- Replace `ts-node` with `vite` for running
`check-desktop-runtime-errors` to maintain a consistent execution
environment across checks.
- Implement a timeout for each fetch call.
- Be nice to external sources, wait 5 seconds before sending another
request to an URL under same domain. This solves rate-limiting issues.
- Instead of running test on every push/pull request, run them only
weekly.
- Do not run tests on each commit/PR but only scheduled (weekly) to
minimize noise.
- Fix URLs are not captured correctly inside backticks or parenthesis.
