摘要

编程基础不是一门容易教的学科——许多学生很难理解编程的抽象概念，并且对编程活动有错误的看法。为了解决这些问题，经验建议在CS入门课程中整合编程概念和软件测试的教学。简而言之，测试有助于提高学生的理解和分析能力。然而，这样的观点需要工具来提供充分的反馈，以评估学生在编程和测试活动方面的表现。在本文中，我们描述了ProgTest——一个基于web的工具，用于基于测试活动的实际编程作业的提交和自动评估。本文还介绍了ProgTest的初步验证结果。这些结果为ProgTest作为编程基础和软件测试综合教学的支持机制的实际应用提供了证据。

ProgTest: An environment for the submission and evaluation of programming assignments based on testing activities

Programming foundations is not an easy subject to be taught — many students have difficulties understanding the abstract concepts of programming and have a wrong view about the programming activity. In order to address these problems, experiences have suggested the integrated teaching of programming concepts and software testing in introductory CS courses. Shortly, the idea is that testing can contribute to enhance the students' capabilities of understanding and analysis. However, such perspective requires tools to provide an adequate feedback to evaluate the students' performance concerning programming and testing activities. In this paper we describe ProgTest — a web-based tool for the submission and automatic evaluation of practical programming assignments based on testing activities. Results from a preliminary validation of ProgTest are also presented. Such results provide evidences on the practical use of ProgTest as a supporting mechanism for the integrated teaching of programming foundations and software testing.
