How to learn VECMA VVUQ Toolkit (VECMAtk) by yourself – VECMA Interactive Tutorials and Links

The interactive tutorials aim to provide a portable training environment without requiring the installation of the VECMAtk components. Specifically, these tutorials focus on trying out our the specific VECMAtk components: FabSim3, EasyVVUQ, QCG-PilotJob and EasyVVUQ-QCGPJ using example applications. These interactive tutorials offer unique opportunities to teach and learn independently on how to perform VVUQ analysis.…
