To verify that component XML is internally consistent
The XML Validate feature verifies that the XML you have entered meets the basic criteria for well-formed XML (that is, it conforms to the XML syntax rules). The XML Validate feature does not check the XML against the criteria defined in the Detect schema for that XML document or verify that the revised code will function as intended within the Detect Engine.
