def run_validator(file_path, for_appversions=None, test_all_tiers=False,
overrides=None, force_validation_type=None):
"""A pre-configured wrapper around the addon validator.
*file_path*
Path to addon / extension file to validate.
*for_appversions=None*
An optional dict of application versions to validate this addon
for. The key is an application GUID and its value is a list of
versions.
*test_all_tiers=False*
When False (default) the validator will not continue if it
encounters fatal errors. When True, all tests in all tiers are run.
See bug 615426 for discussion on this default.
*overrides=None*
Normally the validator gets info from install.rdf but there are a
few things we need to override. See validator for supported overrides.
Example: {'targetapp_maxVersion': {'<app guid>': '<version>'}}
*force_validation_type=None*
Set this to a value in validator.constants like PACKAGE_WEBAPP
when you need to force detection of a package. Otherwise the type
will be inferred from the filename extension.
To validate the addon for compatibility with Firefox 5 and 6,
you'd pass in::
for_appversions={amo.FIREFOX.guid: ['5.0.*', '6.0.*']}
Not all application versions will have a set of registered
compatibility tests.
