Standalone IDEA code validation

Hello Jay,

Is it possible to run IDEA somehow from the command line to validate
project?

You can use inspect.bat (available in the bin directory) to run inspections
on an IDEA project from the command line. Note that this doesn't perform
other types of validation (for example, checking for syntax errors in the
code).

Thanks for the prompt reply!

Do i get it right that i can add an inspection which reports any PsiErrorElement and then i'll get the syntax errors also?

Additionally, it should be noted that TeamCity has offline inspection runs as one of it's (many) build types. Inspection runs can be triggered, scheduled, compared over time, imported back into IDEA, and probably a bunch more stuff I've forgotten about.

And how are those inspection-run results stored?
