The testing framework is developed on top of JUnit that runs on theEclipse platform. The deployed testing programs detect errors in the student's code and then report points lostdue to mistakes and give suitable pieces of advice tocorrect or improve the code immediately. With automated testing the students can check the validity of their code bythemselves. This means that the instructor can concentrateon mentoring the students who are most in need of support and advice. Our proposed method also ensures the evaluation of assignments to be fair and strict by applyingvarious wellbehaved input patterns based on standardsoftware testing techniques while saving time. With ourtesting framework students are continuously aware oftheir progress under a gamelike environment and thereby they keep concentrating on their given tasks. Index Terms Automated testing Distance learning JavaProgramming course Software test. INTRODUCTIONThis paper proposes an effective agile teaching environment with a new educational testing framework for programming courses focusing especially on Java programming. The method and framework have been tested in the laboratorysessions for the freshmen at Hosei University. In a laboratory session especially for beginners it is often the case that ...
