I know apachectl has the configtest option, but as far as I can tell it's only for checking the entire config chain for the system apache. I would like to have a tool that can test an individual .htaccess file for errors as part of a continuous integration toolchain. Is there any way to do that with or without apachectl?

I came across few online tools to validate .htaccess Syntax/Directives and few basic things htaccess-validator and code syntax checker and validator.

PS: To narrow down analyses/error and speed up validation, limit the no. of Directives while validation.

    Are you suggesting I write wget or curl scripts to use these web services? Under CI testing I may end up hitting them too heavily and get banned… – kojiro Jan 15 '13 at 13:39
  • No! I'm suggesting you to upload/paste .htaccess content in respective online tools! Btw, why'd you heat them too heavily? do you need mass validation? – Mayura Jan 15 '13 at 13:40
  • …but the point of the question was continuous integration. – kojiro Jan 15 '13 at 13:41
  • Ah, i'm not aware of such commandline tool, which could validate it like we do by `apachectl` & `configtest`. Seems, we need Open Source Community support. :D – Mayura Jan 15 '13 at 13:44
  • @kojiro issue solved? – djdomi May 30 '22 at 17:57
  • Sadly, no, I've never found a tool that can validate an individual htaccess file under CI use cases. – kojiro May 30 '22 at 21:42
