to be discussed

|
## Context
|
|
|
|
We want express validity on domain objects. Clear described validity helps on
|
|
* avoid many redundant and unnecessary (null-)checks spread around in the code
|
|
* collects all validity constraints to one defined place
|
|
|
|
### Principles affected
|
|
|
|
* Check the domain borders
|
|
* Do not tie validation to object creation / serialization
|
|
* propagate validation through aggregates
|
|
