EVS is useful to all extension developers, Including vendors who sell products through the DNN Store, a consultant, or corporate developers and includes capabilities suited to the type of extension being created. The service helps to Ensure compatibility and quality of extensions with the different DNN platforms available today. Users of the Enterprise, Professional and Community editions can also leverage the EVS free of charge and have the ability to upload any number of extensions for testing or re-testing. Users will see results displayed immediately, adding to the value and simplicity of the service. For future reference, results can also be downloaded or emailed to the user in three separate file formats Including CVS, XLS, and XML.

When you first go to the site you will see the following screen :

The final results will look similar to the following , ( I removed the package name for confidentiality ) .

From here you can see that any errors are listed , as well as warnings on if you are missing any critical parts of the manifest , for example the " Minimum Version " which is something I've Mentioned in previous posts is important is one of the key items . If you are distributing extensions to an audience I would recommend that you use this service prior to sending out any package , as it will help you the make sure that your extensions will work the best in all Situations .
