Something like this is sorely needed because we are abstracting away layers of implementation details and quirks from the users of computational software. They are in fact abstracted away so much that a doubt that the author might have about the correctness of the software is almost never brought up in a research paper. It is just assumed that whoever wrote the software did their due diligence. You often don't see their code, and even if you do, it is incomplete or impossible to run because while the publication is designed to allow the reader to replicate the study, the same doesn't necessarily apply to the computational component that crunched the numbers to reach the conclusion of the paper. |
