ValidatorBuddy is a set of three tools supporting you at your daily work with XML files:
TortoiseXML adds easy XML validation, Schematron validation, well-formed testing and HTML style checks to Windows Explorer.
ValidatorBuddy runs as plugin in XMLSpy and gives you access to the most popular XML parsers and Schematron validation in the best XML editor (requires XMLSpy of course).
ValBuddy.exe is a command-line tool for quick and efficient Batch XML validation and HTML style checking.
TortoiseXML
Validation of one or multiple XML files directly in the standard Windows Explorer using your favorite parser with a simple command from the TortoiseXML menu.
No need to setup anything here. If your XML instance file references a schema you get the validation result with a single click!
Special tools for special tasks:
Use AltovaXML to validate your W3C Schema files.
Use the Xerces SAX parser to validate even large XML instance files.
Efficient XML batch validation
You need to validate thousands of XML instance or schema files? No problem if you use ValBuddy.exe the command-line tool which comes with XML ValidatorBuddy
Running as XMLSpy plugin

If so, ValidatorBuddy will be your friend:
Instant Access to all validation errors in the XML using Saxon-SA or Xerces with a single click.
Check your XML files with the most popular validators available.
Compare the different Validator outputs to get more informations about errors in your XML.
See the results directly in XMLSpy and fix any validation errors.
