Validating Automation Packs
Automation pack authors are not always aware of best practices for creating content. In fact, the 
challenge is that the further removed one is from the product team, the less awareness there is of best 
practices.
Style checkers are sets of validation rules that run against an automation pack and its member objects to 
ensure that the automaton pack follows best practices. Some of the style checkers can be run against a 
process under development in the Process Editor. Some of the benefits that style checkers provide 
include:
  •
Automating best practice checks that QA performs on packaged content, including:
  –
Ensuring that the content follows best practice guidelines.
  –
Identifying issues with automation pack objects (broken references, missing required values).
