Pycs is an autograder designed to streamline the assignment submission and grading process for students and teachers in ICS3U and ICS4U courses. It allows users to register, sign in, join classes, view assignments, submit assignments, and receive grades along with feedback.
-
User Authentication: Students can register and sign in securely to access the autograder functionality.
-
Class Management: Users can join classes to view and submit assignments.
-
Assignment Submission: Students can submit assignments with filenames matching the requirements.
-
Grading System: Assignments are graded out of 4, with additional feedback on variable names, comments, header comments, and docstrings.
-
Pytest Integration: Users can view the output of pytest to assess the success of their submissions.
Students read a description of the assignment
Try to complete the assignment
Submit it to pycs, and look at their errors
Keep trying and trying until they manage to get a 4/4, passing all of the unit tests, and class conventions!
