The development and deployment of the VERA suite in the CASL program necessarily integrated a multi-institutional, multi-language set of tools for deployment to the nuclear industry. At the heart of this effort was the software infrastructure team who was charged with integrating these capabilities, ensuring all of the components work together, and packaging up VERA for release using an agile development process. This panel will discuss the various capabilities that have been developed over CASL to support this mission along with the impacts of having this infrastructure on the development teams, university researchers, and industry collaborators
