It is important that OSCAL tool developers use specialized software to confirm that JSON-, XML-, or YAML-based [OSCAL document instances](/concepts/layer/) are well-formed and valid.

Generally, both "well-formedness" and "validity" of OSCAL instance data determines if a conformant OSCAL application can process this data. In this way, "well-formedness" and "validity" define the boundary between what can be considered OSCAL data or not. The degree to which an application can support well-formed, valid OSCAL data defines how conformant the application is.
