Automatic Assessment of R Code

Contact: Raoul-Gabriel Urma, CambridgeSpark <raoul@cambridgespark.com>

Cambridge Spark’s EDUKATE.AI platform gives students automated feedback on Python and Java code based on functionality and code quality. Students write code and submit it for processing by a set of tests running in Docker containers, resulting in errors, failures and other data subsequently used to provide feedback to the student about what failed and why, plus metrics of code quality. We wish to add support for R to the platform, potentially to the extent of providing an SDK to help for exercise developers to write exercises and associated tests more quickly.
