The validator comes with a commandline interface (CLI) which allows validating any number of input xml files.
The `validator` comes with a command line interface (CLI) which allows validating any number of input XML files.
**Important hint**: since v1.5.1 the filename has been changed from `validationtool-*` to `validator-*`
The general way using the CLI is:
```shell
java -jar validationtool-<version>-standalone.jar -s <scenario-config-file> [OPTIONS] [FILE] [FILE] [FILE] ...
java -jar validator-<version>-standalone.jar -s <scenario-config-file> [OPTIONS] [FILE] [FILE] [FILE] ...
```
The validator can also read the xml file from the standard input
```shell script
# via redirection
java -jar validationtool-<version>-standalone.jar -s <scenario-config-file> [OPTIONS] < my-input.xml
# read from pipe
cat my-input.xml | validationtool-<version>-standalone.jar -s <scenario-config-file> [OPTIONS]
```
The help option displays further CLI options to customize the process:
