Answer 1

The accepted answer requires that you use a proxy with an extra call to each image to determine if the images are broken or not.

Fortunately, there is another way you can do this using only javascript (I'm using Ruby, but you can use the same code in any executeScript method across the WebDriver bindings):

images = @driver.find_elements(:tag_name => "img")
broken_images = images.reject do |image|
  @driver.execute_script("return arguments[0].complete && typeof arguments[0].naturalWidth != \"undefined\" && arguments[0].naturalWidth > 0", image)
end
# broken_images now has an array of any images on the page with broken links
# and we want to ensure that it doesn't have any items
assert broken_images.empty?

To your other question, I would recommend just taking a screenshot of the page and having a human manually verify the resulting screenshot has the correct images. Computers can do the automation work, but humans do have to check and verify its results from time to time :)
