Cover Story: Grading complex university-level programming assignments, like building fully fledged applications from scratch, poses significant challenges in manual assessment, taking up to 1 h per student. To expedite this process, a study explores various automation methods leveraging unit testing, bash scripting, and more. The aim is to define an assessment process combining automation and manual checks. It covers steps like assignment preparation, plagiarism detection, automated correctness checks, data analysis, and grading, and examines limitations of complete automation. The study provides insights and examples to streamline grading while maintaining quality and highlights areas where complete automation remains unfeasible. View this paper
