Package Validation Suite

*Use the package validation suite to verify your package, making sure it meets Unity's package hosting standards before you submit your package for publishing. *

Pre-requisites

The Package Validation Suite requires the Package Manager UI extension mechanism, which is available from version 1.9.3 or later.

Installation

To add the Package Validation Suite to your project, edit your project's manifest.json file, adding the following lines:

{
    "dependencies": {
        "com.unity.package-validation-suite": "0.3.0-preview.6"
    }
}

Validate Package

As shown below, once the validation package is installed in your project, the Package Manager UI will expose a new "Validate" option in the details section of the UI.

By pressing the Validate button in the details pane of a package in development, the validation process will begin. The following will take place:

• The package being tested will get "built", to reflect the file set it will contain.
• The previous version of the package will get downloaded, for comparison and upgrade testing.
• The validation tests will get run.
• A report will be produced for viewing.

Known Limitations

• This is a temporary UI for internal development only.
• Not all validation tests are implemented, more to come!
