Geant-val: a web application for validation of detector simulations

One of the key factors for the successful development of Monte-Carlo programs for physics simulations is to properly organize regression testing and validation. Geant4, the world-standard toolkit for HEP detector simulation, heavily relies on this activity. The CERN SFT group, which contributesto the development, testing, deployment and support of the toolkit, is also in charge of running on a monthly basis a set of community-developed tests using the development releases of Geant4. We present the web application Geant-val developed for visualizing the results of these tests so that comparisons between different Geant4 releases can be made. The application is written using theExpress.js, Node.js and Angular frameworks and uses PostgreSQL for storing test results. Test results are visualised using ROOT and JSROOT. In addition to pure visual comparisons, we perform different statistical tests ($\chi^2$, Kolmogorov-Smirnov, etc.) on the client side using JavaScript Web Workers.
