I'm trying to implement a CI pipeline that uses

singer-tools

to check the tap output, but just realized that the package last had a release in 2017 😅. Would porting some of those CLI tools to the SDK be of some value? If so, I think I can work on a MR

We just started discussing that in https://gitlab.com/meltano/meltano/-/issues/2624#note_521419421! I think that would definitely be valuable

Ah, I missed that conversation 👀. I was able to use

singer-tap-check

to create a comment like this: https://github.com/edgarrmondragon/tap-confluence/pull/7#issuecomment-792484286. I figure something like that may be helpful for people developing/maintaining a tap. I like the idea of using meltano in the CI! If the data is small and PII-free enough maybe use target-sqlite and be able to download it as an artifact of the CI pipeline.
