Tuesday 15 Apr 2025, 10:00 → 11:00 Europe/Zurich

Graeme A Stewart (CERN), Marco Bartolini

The EVERSE Work Package 2 "Community-led best practices for developing high-quality research software" is building the Research Software Quality toolkit (RSQKit), a knowledge hub that collects existing expertise in research software quality.

To gather the very different approaches to software quality and define the landscape of software quality within the EVERSE communities, a first landscaping survey was conducted and a first set of indicators collected.

In this webinar, we will present you with the status of this activity:

 

• Jutta Schnabel: Results from the first software quality landscaping survey

• Daniel Garijo:Describing indicators and dimensions for quality research software .

The RSQkit will be presented in a following EVERSE webinar.
