Parameters

The AttributeValidator’s parameters are configured as rows in a table. Each row describes a different validation rule that can be applied to multiple attributes. The first column allows the user to select the attributes that they wish to validate against a particular test or rule. The user may select one or more attributes here. The second column allows the user to specify the type of test to apply to the attributes selected in the first column. The available tests are described in the operators section below. If a test requires the user to enter additional configuration information, it will be entered in the third column.
