This script checks if a list of URLs redirect correctly to the expected URLs. It reads the URLs from an Excel file and checks if each URL redirects to the corresponding expected URL.

1. Create an Excel file containing the URLs to be checked. The file should contain a single column with the URLs.
2. Create another Excel file, sheet, or column containing the expected redirect URLs. The file should contain a single column with the expected redirect URLs.
3. Create a Python virtual environment and activate it:

python -m venv .venv
source .venv/Scripts/activate

4. Install the required packages:

pip install -r requirements.txt

5. Run the script with the following command:

python url_redirect_checker.py <original_file_path> <original_sheet_name> <original_column_index> <redirect_file_path> <redirect_sheet_name> <redirect_column_index>

• <original_file_path>: The path to the Excel file containing the URLs to be checked.
• <original_sheet_name>: The name of the sheet in the Excel file containing the URLs to be checked.
• <original_column_index>: The index of the column containing the URLs to be checked.
• <redirect_file_path>: The path to the Excel file containing the expected redirect URLs.
• <redirect_sheet_name>: The name of the sheet in the Excel file containing the expected redirect URLs.
• <redirect_column_index>: The index of the column containing the expected redirect URLs.
