APEX Advisor
The APEX Advisor is a tool that executes predefined checks against an application.
These validations can help reduce errors in your application before it's tested or goes
into production.
Note Prior to APEX 4, the APEX Advisor was an open source project developed by
Patrick Wolf. During the development of APEX 4.0, Patrick joined the APEX team at
Oracle and included the Advisor as a built-in tool. The open source version of the
APEX Advisor is available at http://essentials.oracleapex.info/ .
To use the Advisor, go to Utilities Advisor. Figure 13-14 shows all the checks
you can perform. Hovering over each validation displays a brief description of the val-
idation. You have the option to restrict the pages that the Advisor reviews by defining a
comma-delimited list of pages to search for in the Check Pages region located at the
bottom of the page. Once you select the checks to perform, click the Perform Check
button. The results page provides a list of detailed issues that the Advisor finds plus
links to each of the objects.
