Schematron Validator

About the tool

Schema validation is a process of checking XML documents against schemas. Schematron is a rule-based validation language for making assertions about the patterns in XML trees.

This tool allows you to validate XML documents against Schematron schemas. Validation is performed on the server in Java using the SchXslt library.
