XMLSchema(self, etree=None, file=None) Turn a document into an XML Schema validator.

Either pass a schema as Element or ElementTree, or pass a file or filename through the file keyword argument.

Passing the attribute_defaults boolean option will make the schema insert default/fixed attributes into validated documents.
