Specifying Whether Validation Should Be Performed at Build Time

InstallShield enables you to specify whether installation packages and merge modules should be validated each time that a release is successfully built. InstallShield also lets you specify the validation suite that should be used for validation.

On the Tools menu, click Options. The Options dialog box opens.

Click the Validation tab.

Select the check boxes for the types of validation that you would like InstallShield to perform at build time. If you prefer to validate on demand, and not at build time, clear the check boxes.

If you select the Perform validation using check box or the Perform Merge Module validation using check box, select the type of validation that should be performed.
