------------------------------------------------
Summary: CAS validation support
Key: UIMA-6263
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-6263
Project: UIMA
Issue Type: Task
Components: uimaFIT
Reporter: Richard Eckart de Castilho
Assignee: Richard Eckart de Castilho
Fix For: 2.6.0uimaFIT, 3.2.0uimaFIT
A common task while testing UIMA components is (or at least should be)
validating that the annotations that have been created by some annotator or
reader actually conform to the expectations you have for your type system. E.g.
stuff like annotations not ending before they start (which is actually a
general requirement for UIMA text-oriented annotations).
So it would be good if type systems should ship with a bunch of validator
classes that some central validator code could auto-discover. The validator
code would then be called e.g. in unit tests in order to check that the output
of a component is valid with respect to the intentions of the type system.
