Breaking Changes

  • Table migrations needed due to schema changes for new features
  • Upgrade of old gems
  • A new required config file config/lti_settings.yml has been added for LTI integration. This is also required to be done manually for the docker-compose installation as well. Please initialize the file by running
cp config/lti_settings.yml.template config/lti_settings.yml

New Features

LTI Integration

#1635, #1649, #1657, #1678
Autolab now supports roster syncing with courses on Canvas and other LTI (Learning Tools Interoperability) services. For full instructions on setup, see the documentation.

Once a course is linked, instructors can go to [Course] > Manage Course > Manage Course Users to refresh the roster:

Instructors can also edit "Linked Course Settings" to configure whether or not to auto-drop students who are not enrolled in a linked course.

Streaming Output

#1622, #1645, #1671, #1679, Tango #223, Tango #225

Updated feedback interface

image
The feedback interface now features a two-column panel for displaying feedback. The left-hand side features the autograding output as well as a status (Queued, In-Progress, or Completed) badge, and the right-hand side features a results panel, with the student's scores for a submission.

Partial Output

image
Submissions being graded are now clickable with a clock icon rather than a plaintext dash. Once clicked, partial output from Tango can now be viewed on the feedback page as a submission is being graded. Partial feedback will be updated when the user clicks on the refresh icon.
image

Assignments that have been added to the autograding queue, but haven't started grading yet will be displayed as such:

Generalized Feedback

#1617, #1629
image
Instructors and CA's are able to leave "general" feedback on each problem, not tied to any specific line number or file. These can be accessed by pressing the plus button next to a problem header.

image
Once added, the general feedback comments will be displayed with a badge indicating the number of points. When hovered over, they can be edited or deleted.
