Test for broken links to tabs

    • Open Issue created by Sarah German @sarahgerman

    Linking to a page with a tabs query string loads the page, with the specified tab open. For example:

    https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/application_settings_cache.html?tab=Linux+package+%28Omnibus%29

    However, in docs, we do not currently have testing to ensure links with these query strings keep working over time. Links like this will stop working if the tab title changes. So, for now, we prevent these using a Vale rule.

    If we add testing for tab links, we can allow writers to link to these if they'd like.

    To do

    1. Add a test for broken tab links. The existing test for internal anchors may be useful to look at.
    2. Remove the Vale rule.
    3. Update the Documentation style guide.
