It returns ``True`` if everything passes, or a dictionary of pass/fails (True/False). If every member of a subsection passes, it will just have the value ``True``. (It also returns ``False`` if all members fail). In addition, it converts the values from strings to their native types if their checks pass (and ``stringify`` is set). If ``preserve_errors`` is ``True`` (``False`` is default) then instead of a marking a fail with a ``False``, it will preserve the actual exception object. This can contain info about the reason for failure. For example the ``VdtValueTooSmallError`` indicates that the value supplied was too small. If a value (or section) is missing it will still be marked as ``False``. You must have the validate module to use ``preserve_errors=True``. You can then use the ``flatten_errors`` function to turn your nested results dictionary into a flattened list of failures - useful for displaying meaningful error messages.
