Description

Context: https://tour.golang.org/concurrency/10

I think web crawler task is harder than it looks. I saw a lot of solutions and all of them are wrong, even the official one. In order to prove that I have written some tests and script to run them on multiple solutions. You can see results here. I suggest adding these tests to the task the same way as in the word count task.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the existing test infrastructure in the Go tour and add tests for the web crawler task, similar to the word count task tests.
