>
> In Funding Circle we use avro schema to validate some financial data and
> we've found ourselves wondering what is invalid. We've noticed that avro
> [does already
> validation|https://github.com/apache/avro/blob/master/lang/ruby/lib/avro/schema.rb#L94],
> but does not report what fields are invalid.
> At this point, we can clearly communicate validation scenarios and avro can
> be even used as a validation library.
> Little preview of what we've done
> {quote}
> at .person.houses\[1\].number_of_rooms expected type long, got string
> with value "not valid at all"
> {quote}
> At this point, our fork is quite outdated so it will take us some time to
> update it and submit a patch. This is just a question if you would be
> interested in receiving such a patch.
