Abstract—This paper proposes a web-based system that
automatically scores programming assignments for students.
The system receives a Java application program submitted by a
student and returns the test result immediately. The test
consists of compiler check, JUnit test, and result test. The result
test is very useful for students in elementary programming
courses, because a typical program is composed of only a main
method that reads/writes data from/to the standard
input/output devices. The system is used experimentally in an
actual course of our university. We confirmed that the accuracy
of scoring is very high and the response time of the system is
satisfactory.
Index Terms—Automated scoring, java programming
assignments, web systems, learning systems.
