11 years ago Yeah, I've always thought about doing this. Just never got around to it. We would probably want some virtualization or jailing. Will be back from Prague on Sunday!

We'd have to revamp the assignments file to support flags indicating whether it should be autograded, how many points are from autograding, etc., but I think it would definitely be a really awesome feature. Especially considering that Pyboard would most likely be popular with CS courses, and CS lends itself very well to being autograded.
