Hmm... that's a Turing-complete problem :) However, a useful approach would be to run the snap through an automated test process using a range of supported platforms. For example, spinning up VMs of snapd-supporting distros, and testing the snap there. As a precursor to that we would want to have health mechanism which provide a standard way to know if a snap considers itself healthy. Then we could run a service for developers which screens a snap for health across a wide range of devices and VMs, including the commonly used versions of snapd in those environments, to pick up potential problems and make such recommendations.
