To validate your mapping in unit tests and in order to help with "Fail Fast" situations, the following strict mapping modes have been added.

Explicit Mapping

Forcing all classes to be explicitly mapped:

//Default is "false"
TypeAdapterConfig.GlobalSettings.RequireExplicitMapping = true;
//This means you have to have an explicit configuration for each class, even if it's just:
TypeAdapterConfig<Source, Destination>.NewConfig();

Checking Destination Member

Forcing all destination properties to have a corresponding source member or explicit mapping/ignore:

//Default is "false"
TypeAdapterConfig.GlobalSettings.RequireDestinationMemberSource = true;

Validating Mappings

Both a specific TypeAdapterConfig<Source, Destination> or all current configurations can be validated. In addition, if Explicit Mappings (above) are enabled, it will also include errors for classes that are not registered at all with the mapper.

//Validate a specific config
var config = TypeAdapterConfig<Source, Destination>.NewConfig();
config.Compile();

//Validate globally
TypeAdapterConfig<Source, Destination>.NewConfig();
TypeAdapterConfig<Source2, Destination2>.NewConfig();
TypeAdapterConfig.GlobalSettings.Compile();
