Abstract
Many instructors nowadays rely on the use of automated systems to help them assess the programming exercises of students. These systems typically perform black box testing to determine the correctness of student programs, which limits the type of programming exercises that can be automatically assessed. This paper reviews common exercises in textbooks and identifies some characteristics of these exercises that affect their suitability for automated assessment.
