My favourite toy to this purpose is Kiwix:
* download a recent file for your favourite wiki at
http://download.kiwix.org/zim/wikipedia/ ,
* download Kiwix to open it http://download.kiwix.org/nightly/bin/latest/ ,
* start pressing "random page" and report surprises e.g. to
https://sourceforge.net/p/kiwix/bugs/
I wrote http://nell-wikipedia.github.cscott.net a while ago with a
similar goal. It is an offline wiki using parsoid output. It needs a
bit of updating, since the Parsoid output has changed slightly since I
wrote it.
But you can also use http://parsoid.wmflabs.org/enwiki/Main_Page
directly now. The Parsoid output includes a style sheet which ought
to render the parsoid DOM output identically to the standard PHP page
output.
We're constructing a visual diff tool this quarter so that "soon" we
should be able to do even better: testing for pixel-accurate matches
against standard output. But that's not done yet, so bug reports on
Parsoid output and CSS/rendering issues are still valuable.
We are beginning to get there. :-)
See
https://github.com/subbuss/parsoid_visual_diffs/blob/master/diffs/enwiki.Medha_Patkar.diff.jun27.jpg
for the latest pixel-level visual diff on a sample page. Within the next
couple weeks, we should be able to start generating these on a wider
range of pages and set up regression testing on them as well to track
progress.
Subbu.
