#Feed validation

Feed validation checks whether a feed follows its format so that apps can read it without guessing. Articles tagged here explain how to test RSS, Atom and podcast feeds. They cover the most common errors, from invalid dates to broken characters and missing identifiers. Guides show how to read validator output and fix the cause, not only the symptom. We also explain server settings that affect feeds, such as content types and caching headers. A valid feed saves readers, directories and tools from silent failures.
