| 1. A method comprising:
reading a first input file having a first plurality of validation test identifiers identifying first validation tests to validate
whether a system environment's level of system resources meet a minimum requirement, wherein the minimum requirement indicates
a minimum level of system resources required for the system environment to support installation of a first software application,
wherein the first validation tests are associated with the first software application;
reading a first rule mapping file to obtain a first mapping between a first validation test identifier and a first program
code identifier identifying first program code for performing at least a portion of the first validation tests;
executing the first program code to perform the at least a portion of the first validation tests to determine whether the
system environment's system resources meet the minimum requirement;
reading a second input file having a second plurality of validation test identifiers identifying second validation tests to
validate the system environment for a second software application;
reading a second rule mapping file to obtain a second mapping between a second validation test identifier and a second program
code identifier identifying second program code for performing at least a portion of the second validation tests;
executing the second program code to perform the at least a portion of the second validation tests to validate the system
environment for the second software application; and
outputting results of the validation tests.
