Updated error codes for all Validator tools
We’ve just updated our documentation for all our Validator tools to include an up-to-date list of Exit return codes. You may find these useful if you’re running these tools from the command line.
These error codes apply to Bug Validator, Coverage Validator, Memory Validator, Performance Validator, Thread Validator, and VM Validator.
