validating
Validating refers to the process of checking or proving the accuracy, authenticity or validity of something. This could involve confirming that a system, product, concept, or data meets a set of requirements, standards, or specifications. It could also include verifying the truthfulness or effectiveness of an idea, method, or statement. Validation aims to ensure that something is not only functional but also correct and useful for its intended purpose.
