NBGrader is an automated grading system for Jupyter Notebooks and it’s a nice and easy way to automatically grade cells within a notebook. If you want to learn more about how NBGrader works, you can find their documentation here: https://nbgrader.readthedocs.io/en/stable/.
When you have created an NBGrader assignment, you will have a teacher version containing all the tests (including hidden tests) and a student version, which doesn’t contain the hidden tests. Students will then go on and create their assignment within this template.
In CodeGrade, we have created an NBGrader integration called `cg-nbgrader`, so that you only have to upload the teacher template and CodeGrade will run NBGrader for you. This will also allow your students to simply upload their Jupyter Notebook whenever they’d like and get instant feedback from CodeGrade.
After a student hands in their notebook, NBGrader will instantly run and a score will be presented to the student. Furthermore, the graded notebook will also be available in the Code Viewer, so students can see what they did right, and what they can improve on.
