Extending validate-modules
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
The ``validate-modules`` tool has a `schema.py <https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/test/lib/ansible_test/_data/sanity/validate-modules/validate_modules/schema.py>`_ that is used to validate the YAML blocks, such as ``DOCUMENTATION`` and ``RETURNS``.
