Liquibase Command validate

It is always good to validate script files before executing them against the database, it helps avoid errors. Liquibase provides validate command that checks any possible error in the ChangeLog file that may result in updation failure. validate command check following errors

• ChangeLog and ChangeSet are structurally correct
• All included reference files are present
• ChangeSet attributes like id, and author are not duplicate
• ChangeSet checksum are correct

validate command only looks for structural errors, it doesn't check ChangeLog or ChangeSet against the database update
