Scientific background of the Knowledge Base
This knowledge base is based on A workflow for increasing the quality of scientific software (Maric, Lehr et al.; to be published), a paper that originated from the work at the SFB 1194 at TU Darmstadt. For this paper please see our section in literature.
We recommend to read the paper and to try to follow the guides-section.
Navigation
The articles herein are equipped with tags to help find them as well as they are labeled with the chapters according to the sectioning of aforementioned paper, namely Version control, Build system, Cross-linking publication, software and datasets, Continuous Integration, Containerization, Test-driven development and code quality, Test quantification, visualization and evaluation on HPC-clusters and the category, whether the article belongs to a minimum or a full workflow.
