1. A system comprising:
one or more processors; and
one or more memories including program code that is executable by the one or more processors for causing the one or more processors to perform operations including:
receiving source code for a software program written in a programming language, the source code including a call to an action to be executed, the action having a parameter that is set to a selected value in the source code prior to the call to the action in the source code, wherein the parameter is defined in definition data;
receiving a file associated with the action, wherein the file is separate from the source code, and wherein the file includes metadata about the parameter;
extracting the metadata from the file;
modifying the definition data for the parameter to include the metadata for the parameter and a setter function, wherein the setter function is configured to validate the selected value and set the parameter to the selected value; and
after modifying the definition data and prior to calling the action for execution, automatically executing a validation process on the selected value for the parameter, wherein the validation process involves:
retrieving the metadata from the modified definition data;
executing the setter function in the modified definition data, wherein the setter function includes validation logic configured to evaluate the selected value using the retrieved metadata to determine that the selected value is invalid; and
in response to determining that the selected value is invalid, outputting an error notification indicating that the selected value is invalid.
