Voluptuous is a package for data validation (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/voluptuous/)

It is used by Zuul (https://github.com/openstack-infra/zuul/blob/master/requirements.txt)
It supports schema-based declarative approach for validating input data.
Solum will benefit from using this.

devdatta-kulkarni started on that path here:
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/77251/

But, gates won't pass this patch because voluptuous is not part of openstack/requirements. So abandoning this patch for now. Once we get voluptuous merged into openstack/requirements we can revisit this.

Here are some relevant links:
