Is there a way to validate hAtom microformat?

Question

I have implemented hAtom microformat on my blog. At least, I think I have, but I can't find any validator (or any software that uses hAtom) in order to determine if I have done this correctly. A Google search for "hatom validator" currently doesn't return anything useful. Does anyone know of a way to confirm that it is implemented correctly?

Answer 1

Convert it to Atom, validate Atom and manually check if it contains all data you expected.

There's open-source hCard validator. Maybe someone could adapt it to validate hAtom as well…

How about Optimus?

Otherwise, you can slow-validate it by adding it to the list of hAtom examples in the wild. Occasionally someone will go through them and move the bad ones to the list of "Examples with some problems."
