Abstract: This paper introduces the Software Quality Assurance as a Service (SQAaaS) concept and it describes an open-source implementation of a comprehensive platform that supports the automated assessment of specific quality metrics for software and services, defined as a set of baseline requirements. The platform is openly accessible, focuses on research software and open science, and promotes best practices by awarding standards-based digital badges to software and services. It provides an easy-to-use web-based graphical user interface which facilitates the interaction with server-side components in charge of automatically creating CI/CD (Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery) pipelines for automated testing of the baseline criteria. The service is in production and has performed over 2800 assessments, awarding more than 125 digital badges across several scientific disciplines.
