kubeval
is a tool for validating a Kubernetes YAML or JSON configuration file.
It does so using schemas generated from the Kubernetes OpenAPI specification, and
therefore can validate schemas for multiple versions of Kubernetes.
$ kubeval my-invalid-rc.yaml
WARN - fixtures/my-invalid-rc.yaml contains an invalid ReplicationController - spec.replicas: Invalid type. Expected: [integer,null], given: string
