How Dry run functionality is implemented

[Former Community Member]

I am looking to know how dry run functionality in CQ5 is implemented. If I have to implement custom dry run, how to do that.

Assuming you are asking for tree activation for details look [1]. Basically iterates through all the nodes, adopt to page & assets to get lastmodified date and also get replicationstatus.
