+# Validating/Testing OpenAPI descriptions
+In order to test the validity of an OpenApi document, we avail the following tools:
+- [Microsoft.OpenApi.Hidi](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.OpenApi.Hidi)
+
+    A commandline tool for validating and transforming OpenAPI descriptions. [Installation guidelines and documentation](https://github.com/microsoft/OpenAPI.NET/blob/vnext/src/Microsoft.OpenApi.Hidi/readme.md)
+
+- Microsoft.OpenApi.Workbench
+
+    A workbench tool consisting of a GUI where you can test and convert OpenAPI descriptions in both JSON and YAML from v2-->v3 and vice versa.
+
+    #### Installation guidelines:
+    1. Clone the repo locally by running this command:
+        `git clone https://github.com/microsoft/OpenAPI.NET.git`
+    2. Open the solution file `(.sln)` in the root of the project with Visual Studio
+    3. Navigate to the `src/Microsoft.OpenApi.Workbench` directory and set it as the startup project
+    4. Run the project and you'll see a GUI pop up resembling the one below:

+    
+    5. Copy and paste your OpenAPI descriptions in the **Input Content** window or paste the path to the descriptions file in the **Input File** textbox and click on `Convert` to render the results.
