In this talk I discuss the process developed for validating internally generated R packages at SCHARP (Statistical Center for HIV/AIDS Research and Prevention) – the R Package Validation Framework. I cover the elements of the framework and basics of applying it with some examples. By using tools native to the R package building infrastructure, validation can become an integrated part of your package development, improving the quality of both the package and validation.
