How to Position Your Globus Data Portal for Success Ten Good PracticesGlobus
Science gateways allow science and engineering communities to access shared data, software, computing services, and instruments. Science gateways have gained a lot of traction in the last twenty years, as evidenced by projects such as the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) and the Center of Excellence on Science Gateways (SGX3) in the US, The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) and its platforms in Australia, and the projects around Virtual Research Environments in Europe. A few mature frameworks have evolved with their different strengths and foci and have been taken up by a larger community such as the Globus Data Portal, Hubzero, Tapis, and Galaxy. However, even when gateways are built on successful frameworks, they continue to face the challenges of ongoing maintenance costs and how to meet the ever-expanding needs of the community they serve with enhanced features. It is not uncommon that gateways with compelling use cases are nonetheless unable to get past the prototype phase and become a full production service, or if they do, they don't survive more than a couple of years. While there is no guaranteed pathway to success, it seems likely that for any gateway there is a need for a strong community and/or solid funding streams to create and sustain its success. With over twenty years of examples to draw from, this presentation goes into detail for ten factors common to successful and enduring gateways that effectively serve as best practices for any new or developing gateway.

2. What’s the difference?
• Verification
– Are you building the product right?
– Software must conform to its specification
• Validation
– Are you building the right product?
– Software should do what the user really
requires
3. Verification and Validation Process
• Must applied at each stage of the software
development process to be effective
• Objectives
– Discovery of system defects
– Assessment of system usability in an
operational situation
4. Static and Dynamic Verification
• Software inspections (static)
– Concerned with analysis of static system
representations to discover errors
– May be supplemented by tool-based analysis of
documents and program code
• Software testing (dynamic)
– Concerned with exercising product using test
data and observing behavior
5. Program Testing
• Can only reveal the presence of errors,
cannot prove their absence
• A successful test discovers 1 or more errors
• The only validation technique that should
be used for non-functional (or performance)
requirements
• Should to used in conjunction with static
verification to ensure full product coverage
6. Types of Testing
• Defect testing
– Tests designed to discover system defects
– A successful defect test reveals the presence of
defects in the system
• Statistical testing
– Tests designed to reflect the frequency of user
inputs
– Used for reliability estimation
7. Verification and Validation Goals
• Establish confidence that software is fit for
its intended purpose
• The software may or may not have all
defects removed by the process
• The intended use of the product will
determine the degree of confidence in
product needed
8. Confidence Parameters
• Software function
– How critical is the software to the organization?
• User expectations
– Certain kinds of software have low user
expectations
• Marketing environment
– getting a product to market early might be more
important than finding all defects
9. Testing and Debugging
• These are two distinct processes
• Verification and validation is concerned with
establishing the existence of defects in a program
• Debugging is concerned with locating and
repairing these defects
• Debugging involves formulating a hypothesis
about program behavior and then testing this
hypothesis to find the error
10. Planning
• Careful planning is required to get the most out of
the testing and inspection process
• Planning should start early in the development
process
• The plan should identify the balance between
static verification and testing
• Test planning must define standards for the testing
process, not just describe product tests

12. Software Test Plan Components
• Testing process
• Requirements traceability
• Items tested
• Testing schedule
• Test recording procedures
• Testing HW and SW requirements
• Testing constraints
13. Software Inspections
• People examine a source code
representation to discover anomalies and
defects
• Does not require systems execution so they
may occur before implementation
• May be applied to any system
representation (document, model, test data,
code, etc.)
14. Inspection Success
• Very effective technique for discovering defects
• It is possible to discover several defects in a single
inspection
• In testing one defect may in fact mask another
• They reuse domain and programming knowledge
(allowing reviewers to help authors avoid making
common errors)
15. Inspections and Testing
• These are complementary processes
• Inspections can check conformance to
specifications, but not with customer’s real
needs
• Testing must be used to check compliance
with non-functional system characteristics
like performance, usability, etc.
16. Program Inspections
• Formalizes the approach to document
reviews
• Focus is on defect detection, not defect
correction
• Defects uncovered may be logic errors,
coding errors, or non-compliance with
development standards
17. Inspection Preconditions
• A precise specification must be available
• Team members must be familiar with organization
standards
• All representations must be syntactically correct
• An error checklist must be prepare in advance
• Management must buy into the the fact the inspections will
increase the early development costs
• Inspections cannot be used to evaluate staff performance
18. Inspection Procedure
• System overview presented to inspection team
• Code and associated documents are distributed to
team in advance
• Errors discovered during the inspection are
recorded
• Product modifications are made to repair defects
• Re-inspection may or may not be required
19. Inspection Teams
• Have at least 4 team members
– product author
– inspector (looks for errors, omissions, and
inconsistencies)
– reader (reads the code to the team)
– moderator (chairs meeting and records errors
uncovered)
20. Inspection Checklists
• Checklists of common errors should be used
to drive the inspection
• Error checklist should be language
dependent
• The weaker the type checking in the
language, the larger the checklist is likely to
become
21. Inspection Fault Classes
• Data faults (e.g. array bounds)
• Control faults (e.g. loop termination)
• Input/output faults (e.g. all data read)
• Interface faults (e.g. parameter assignment)
• Storage management faults (e.g. memory leaks)
• Exception management faults (e.g. all error
conditions trapped)
22. Inspection Rate
• 500 statements per hour during overview
• 125 statements per hour during individual
preparation
• 90-125 statements per hour can be inspected
by a team
• Including preparation time, each 100 lines
of code costs one person day (if a 4 person
team is used)
23. Automated Static Analysis
• Performed by software tools that process
source code listing
• Can be used to flag potentially erroneous
conditions for the inspection team to
examine
• They should be used to supplement the
reviews done by inspectors
24. Static Analysis Checks
• Data faults (e.g. variables not initialized)
• Control faults (e.g. unreachable code)
• Input/output faults (e.g. duplicate variables output)
• Interface faults (e.g. parameter type mismatches)
• Storage management faults (e.g. pointer
arithmetic)
25. Static Analysis Stages - part 1
• Control flow analysis
– checks loops for multiple entry points or exits
– find unreachable code
• Data use analysis
– finds initialized variables
– variable declared and never used
• Interface analysis
– check consistency of function prototypes and instances
26. Static Analysis Stages - part 2
• Information flow analysis
– examines output variable dependencies
– highlights places for inspectors to look at closely
• Path analysis
– identifies paths through the program determines order
of statements executed on each path
– highlights places for inspectors to look at closely
27. Defect Testing
• Component Testing
– usually responsibility of component developer
– test derived from developer’s experiences
• Integration Testing
– responsibility of independent test team
– tests based on system specification
28. Testing Priorities
• Exhaustive testing only way to show program is
defect free
• Exhaustive testing is not possible
• Tests must exercise system capabilities, not its
components
• Testing old capabilities is more important than
testing new capabilities
• Testing typical situations is more important than
testing boundary value cases

30. Testing Approaches
• Covered in fairly well in CIS 375
• Functional testing
– black box techniques
• Structural testing
– white box techniques
• Integration testing
– incremental black box techniques
• Object-oriented testing
– cluster or thread testing techniques
31. Interface Testing
• Needed whenever modules or subsystems
are combined to create a larger system
• Goal is to identify faults due to interface
errors or to invalid interface assumptions
• Particularly important in object-oriented
systems development
32. Interface Types
• Parameter interfaces
– data passed normally between components
• Shared memory interfaces
– block of memory shared between components
• Procedural interfaces
– set of procedures encapsulated in a package or sub-
system
• Message passing interfaces
– sub-systems request services from each other
33. Interface Errors
• Interface misuse
– parameter order, number, or types incorrect
• Interface misunderstanding
– call component makes incorrect assumptions
about component being called
• Timing errors
– race conditions and data synchronization errors
34. Interface Testing Guidelines
• Design tests so actual parameters passed are at
extreme ends of formal parameter ranges
• Test pointer variables with null values
• Design tests that cause components to fail
• Use stress testing in message passing systems
• In shared memory systems, vary the order in
which components are activated
35. Testing Workbenches
• Provide a range of tools to reduce the time
required and the total testing costs
• Usually implemented as open systems since
testing needs tend to be organization
specific
• Difficult to integrate with closed design and
analysis work benches

37. Testing Workbench Adaptation
• Scripts may be developed for user interface
simulators and patterns for test data
generators
• Test outputs may need to be developed for
comparison with actual outputs
• Special purpose file comparison programs
may also be useful
38. System Testing
• Testing of critical systems must often rely
on simulators for sensor and activator data
(rather than endanger people or profit)
• Test for normal operation should be done
using a safely obtained operational profile
• Tests for exceptional conditions will need to
involve simulators
39. Arithmetic Errors
• Use language exception handling mechanisms to
trap errors
• Use explicit error checks for all identified errors
• Avoid error-prone arithmetic operations when
possible
• Never use floating-point numbers
• Shut down system (using graceful degradation) if
exceptions are detected
40. Algorithmic Errors
• Harder to detect than arithmetic errors
• Always err on the side of safety
• Use reasonableness checks on all outputs
that can affect people or profit
• Set delivery limits for specified time
periods, if application domain calls for them
• Have system request operator intervention
any time a judgement call must be made
