Are there any supporting resources for schematron? any tutorials-tools etc ..

Question

Hello .. I am interested to learn Schematron .. Please suggest me a tutorial to practice (I am expecting a complete tutorial where I can develop my skills,, well. I already know the basics of DTD, XSD and XSLT ..) ..

I have tried using Zvon tutorials and Schematron.com,

And also ... I have been struggling to find the schematron-editor for practicing .. If it is visual-studio then I would feel heavenly .. Is it possible to implement Schematron the way we implement XSD and XSLT .. (I mean so easily)??

Thanx in advance ..

XML ValidatorBuddy is a tool which offers Schematron support as a plugin for XMLSpy, as a standalone desktop application and directly from the Windows File Explorer.

You just need to select one or multiply XML instance files and the Schematron schema.
