You can use `--config-check` to check your config (and rules) for
errors.

To test your rules you can use `--dry-init` and `--path-check`
(see `man aide` for details). 

Both `--dry-init` and `--path-check` have been added in AIDE 0.17.

Best regards

They don't, for buster, as this would violate Debian's release policy.

Debian is going to release a new stable release soon, though.
