As highlighted in our recent blog post, we're actively enhancing our product to ensure robust support for our partners and sustained engagement for your learners. We understand the challenges associated with grading, which often consumes a significant amount of time during programming skill development. With the introduction of our advanced autograder, our aim is not only to streamline the grading process, saving you valuable time, but also to provide a platform for delivering constructive, practical, and tailored feedback to your learners. Through these improvements, we aspire to empower you in seamlessly integrating your unique coding pedagogy into your CS courses, all while ensuring sustained learner engagement.
How it works
AutoTest V2 features a hidden command that unlocks a multitude of advanced autograding capabilities.
The designated command for accessing these advanced functions is the ‘cg’ command, which currently contains the following subprograms:
- `cg checkstyle`: A versatile utility for installing, parsing, and executing Checkstyle, designed for users seeking greater customization beyond the built-in Checkstyle block functionalities.
- `cg comments` : A generic code quality comment parser that automatically generates and inserts comments into the editor or code viewer.
- `cg java`: A generic utility designed for handling Java programs, currently featuring a single subcommand `compile, which compiles Java files and automatically writes errors to the editor.
