The v2 series of the present library provide a straightforward way for software projects to be compliant with common SQA practices.
In particular, the library provides the functionality to cover as much criteria as possible from the Software and Service quality baselines below:
- A set of Common Software Quality Assurance Baseline Criteria for Research Projects, online available.
- A set of Common Service Quality Assurance Baseline Criteria for Research Projects, online available.
The SQA requirements are defined through a YAML-based configuration file that hides the
complexity of handling directly the Jenkins Pipeline as Code's
features. As a result, the SQA work, as defined in the YAML file config.yml
, is
organized according to the criteria code names from the aforementioned baselines.
As an example, qc_style
setting in the YAML is a direct reference to the
QC.Sty
criteria in the previous software quality baseline, which establishes
the good practices that the source code shall follow in terms of style. The following
example runs flake8 to check style consistency in
a Python project:
sqa_criteria:
qc_style:
container: python-test-tools
commands:
- flake8
As it can be seen in the example, the library provides the container
option as a
way to specify the agent where the check will run. In the current version, the
library supports Docker Compose as the container
orchestration tool to fire up the required set of services. In this example, the
python-test-tools
is the identifier of a Docker Compose service.

In order to get started with the library, please check our documentation.
Jenkins CI/CD pipelines are often similar in the type of actions that are triggered. It then makes sense to have a common library for tackling them, covering different programming languages and interfaces to software lifecycle management tools.
Contributions are really welcome. Please check our contribution guidelines.
