When someone is looking at your project, they want to know:

A set of C language tests are defined as Unittests:
# what is it?

# how good the code is?
 
# how much support is available?
 
# what’s included?
 
# what does it look like?
 
# how set it up?

# Define reference publication used to cite software.
 
# Define software as reference implementation of a method, and define a set of approved software acceptance/regression tests that can be used to establish a software implements that “method”.
 
# Create software maintenance organization with commit authority for pull requests and approval process for change requests, and process of approving new releases.
 
# Establish software community through registrations, newsletters, activity, regular calls, regular meetings, define community and roles.
 
  
== Adoption of Fork and Pull Git Repo Model ==
+
== ToDo ==
* Use the model used by the majority of open-source projects (including pyCSEP).
 
* The “maintainer” of the shared repo assigns rights to “Collaborators”
 
* Collaborators do not have push access to main (upstream) repo
 
* Core development teams accepts (PRs) from collaborators, reviews them, then merges them into main repo
 
  
== Contributor Process: ==
+
* Document the scripts in ucvm/utilities
Working with shared projects on GitHub
+
* Update the version numbers from 21.7 in get_largefiles.py and check_large_files.py
# Fork the repository
+
* fix version in setup.list
# Clone your forked copy
+
* confirm that models are correctly un-commented in ucvm.conf file (seems like cvm-H and others were not enabled)
# Sync your personal repo with shared repo
+
* Check references to proj-4 in documentation and code error messages and update if necessary to proj-5
# Git merge/git rebase
+
* Check ucvm/tests/Makefile.am setting, but never using, AM_CFLAGS
# Make a contribution
+
* change, or explain to users, two different ucvm.conf in the system
# Pull request

== Basic Recommendations: ==
+
== Key UCVM Improvements in 21.10 release: ==
# Make source code publicly accessible
+
* Move the run_ucvm.sh and run_ucvm_query.sh script to utilities
# Make software easy to discover by providing software metadata via a popular community registry (Examples of community registries of software metadata are bio.tools (Ison et al., 2016), (Ison et al., 2016) biojs.io (Corpas et al.,2014; Gómez et al., 2013) and Omic Tools (Henry et al., 2014) in the life sciences and DataCite (Brase, n.d.) as a generic metadata registry for software as well as data.

== DOCUMENTATION TYPES ==
 
* CODE DOCUMENTATION - Semantic identifiers, comments, API, engineering, dependencies, requirements
 
* USER DOCUMENTATION - How to get, run, use the software; parameters, data model, etc.; license
 
* MAINTENANCE DOCUMENTATION - How to build, release, review code, publish
 
* DEVELOPER DOCUMENTATION - How to contribute, contribution templates (issues, pull/merge requests)
 
* METADATA - Software metadata (CodeMeta), Citation File (CFF), "references" (dependencies)
 
* PROJECT DOCUMENTATION - Rationale, teams, governance, community (contact, code of conduct)
 
 
 
== Where Documentation Lives ==
 
Documentation lives where the source code lives! (This is never in an email, chat, or similar!)
 
Conceptual Documentation:
 
* Requirements
 
* Projects
 
Hands-on documentation
 
* How-tos, getting started
 
* Templates for issues, pull/merge
 
* Contribution guidelines
 
Reference documentation
 
* API

== Toolbox Documentation: ==
 
Toolbox documentation should describe the steps off analysis in a pedagogical, narrative
 
fashion, with example data that users can load to follow along with and understand the documentation.
 
 
 
== Implement Multiple Test Types: ==
 
# Functional testing – Unit Tests
 
# Integration Testing – Testing interoperability of units
 
# Acceptance testing – Results on user’s system equivalent to results on development system
 
# Regression testing – Confirm equivalent results to previous results.
 
 
 
== Recommended Basic Practices: ==
 
# Training on Software Practices

Updated UCVM Documentation

Citable Code

UCVM Tests Organization

A set of C language tests are defined as Unittests:

UCVM Programs found in the ucvm source code directory contains numerous example programs that are not included in the ucvm_bin installation directory. A list of programs in the UCVM Source directory is given here:

UCVM Plotting routines have been moved into a separate repo. Information on the plotting routines.

ToDo

  • Document the scripts in ucvm/utilities
  • Update the version numbers from 21.7 in get_largefiles.py and check_large_files.py
  • fix version in setup.list

  • Check references to proj-4 in documentation and code error messages and update if necessary to proj-5
  • Check ucvm/tests/Makefile.am setting, but never using, AM_CFLAGS

UCVM Versus CIG Standards:

Minimum:

  • Version control – ok
  • Code – ok
  • Portable – ok
  • Testing – (a) tests that verify it runs properly (b) accuracy or benchmark tests
  • Documentation – (a) install (b) parameters (c) physics (d) example inputs cookbooks (e) citable pub
  • Userworkflow – ok

Standard:

  • Version control -ok
  • Coding – (a) params at runtime (b) development plan (c) code comments (d) add features without modify main branch (e) useful error reports
  • Portability: (a) dependency cheking (b) automake (c) output configuration and build options
  • Testing – pass fail tests
  • Documentation: (a) workflow for research (b) how to extend code
  • Userworkflow: (a) easy to change sim params (b) user specific directories/filenames for i/o (c) standard binary formats (d) citation for code version.
