Open Stack

It is possible to perform a stack validate after jinja2 processing.
There is already an action existing [1] do it and get the results. But
the results are not easy to consume, so it required to flatten the
heat resource tree and parameters. This has been done already in UI,
and i have added a patch for doing it in tripleo-common [2]. The
output of this flattening will look like [3][4].

I am not sure if this is what you are expecting.
