Cross platform plugin testing and validation tool
pluginval is a cross-platform plugin validator and tester application. It is designed to be used by both plugin and host developers to ensure stability and compatibility between plugins and hosts.
If you are a plugin user looking to report a problem with a plugin to the developers, you can use pluginval to create a detailed log which can drastically improve the time to fix issues. Please follow the instructions here to get started: Testing plugins with pluginval
Highlights:
Test VST/AU/VST3 plugins
Compatible with macOS/Windows/Linux
Run in GUI or headless mode
Validation is performed in a separate process to avoid crashing
Running in GUI Mode
simply select a plugin and press the “Test Selected” button to validate it. The plugin will be loaded and each of the tests run in turn. Any output from the tests will be shown on the “Console” tab. If you find problems with a plugin, this can be useful to send to the plugin developers.
