Client operation validation for variable input param fields

Hello,

We use the Apollo CLI to validate client operations against our deployed graph as described on this page.

We also structure our operations using variables for input params as described on this page.

We have found, however, that by structuring the operations this way, if the input param is a non-scalar type, the operations validation does not validate the fields of the passed in input variable. For example, suppose I have the following mutation operation that is consistent with my schema:

mutation MutateSomething($input: Something!) {
  mutateSomething(input: $input) {
    field1
    field2
    field3
  }
}

And the input variable we pass in looks like { field1: 'value1', field2: 'value2' }.
Supposing Something is defined like:

input Something {
  field1: String!
  field2: String!
  field3: String!
}

Because field3 is required, the passed in input variable that is missing it will fail. But because the client operation validation is made against the MutateSomething operation, which doesn’t include the input fields, it does not catch the failure. Is there a recommended way to account for such input variables when validating client operations?
