Yevis-cli

Yevis-cli validates and registers bioinformatics workflows by performing automated validation and testing against predefined reusability criteria.

Key Features:

• Workflow validation and testing: Performs automated validation and testing of submitted workflows against predefined reusability criteria as part of the Yevis system.
• Integration with GitHub and Zenodo: Supports repository-based submission and archival using GitHub and Zenodo to associate workflow sources and archived releases.
• Automated registration process: Initiates an automatic validation and testing sequence triggered by a GitHub pull request to register workflows into the registry.

Scientific Applications:

• Workflow reliability and reproducibility: Ensures shared workflows meet reusability criteria, improving reliability and reproducibility of bioinformatics analyses.
• Automated registry curation: Reduces manual curation by applying systematic validation and testing to submitted workflows prior to registry inclusion.

Methodology:

Defines clear reusability requirements and performs automated validation and testing of workflows; workflow registration is initiated via GitHub pull requests which trigger the validation and testing sequence.
