Grade Programming Courseworkthe Same Way, Every Time
Universities, bootcamps, and training institutions use TestHike to proctor programming exams and grade coding coursework consistently, at scale, without kernel-level lockdown software.
Grading Code by Hand Doesn't Scale to a Full Class
A single instructor or TA grading dozens or hundreds of coding submissions by hand introduces inconsistency — the same answer might score differently depending on who reviews it, or when in a long grading session it gets reviewed. That inconsistency is hard to defend if a grade is ever questioned.
TestHike grades coding and multiple-choice questions automatically against the same rules for every submission, and gives faculty a dashboard to handle written questions manually — with the final grade calculated the same, transparent way for every student.
- Automatic grading removes drift between graders
- Same weightage rules applied to every submission
- Written questions still reviewed manually where needed
- No kernel-level lockdown software required
Across Every Type of Programming Education
Programming Exams & Lab Tests
Run timed, controlled coding exams without deploying kernel-level lockdown software campus-wide.
ProctoredConsistent Final Assessments
Grade every cohort and instructor's students against the same automatic rules.
Across cohortsSkill Certification
Back a completion certificate with an actual graded coding task, not just a multiple-choice quiz.
Internal or vendor-runQuestions From Faculty and Program Staff
Is TestHike built for higher education specifically, or also bootcamps and training programs?
Both. The same platform is used for university programming exams, bootcamp final assessments, and internal or vendor-run technical training programs — the grading and proctoring infrastructure is the same regardless of the institution type.
Does TestHike integrate with our LMS?
TestHike handles the coding assessment and exam portion specifically. It's typically used alongside an existing learning management system rather than replacing it. See the Platform overview for current integration options.
How is fairness ensured across a large class or cohort?
Every student receives the same questions and the same automatic grading rules, removing the grading inconsistency that comes with multiple human graders working through hundreds of submissions by hand.
Can we offer a practice exam before the real one counts?
Yes. A mock assessment shows correct answers immediately and skips the desktop security controls entirely — useful for letting students get comfortable with the format beforehand.
