> In Funding Circle we use avro schema to validate some financial data and we've found ourselves wondering what is invalid. We've noticed that avro [does already validation|https://github.com/apache/avro/blob/master/lang/ruby/lib/avro/schema.rb#L94], but does not report what fields are invalid.
>  At this point, we can clearly communicate validation scenarios and avro can be even used as a validation library.
> Little preview of what we've done

>     at .person.houses\[1\].number_of_rooms expected type long, got string with value "not valid at all"

> At this point, our fork is quite outdated so it will take us some time to update it and submit a patch. This is just a question if you would be interested in receiving such a patch.
