Frequently Asked Questions
How does the platform test coding solutions?
Each exercise has one or more test cases. When a student submits code, we run it against those test cases to check correctness and performance. If you need more complex logic, you can implement a custom checker that will evaluate submissions based on additional criteria.
Is partial credit possible?
Absolutely. If your exercises have multiple tasks or steps, you can award partial points for passing some (but not all) test cases. This can be managed with test case weights or by using custom checkers that factor in partial correctness.
Can I re-evaluate submissions after updating the exercise?
Yes. Once you modify test cases or the checker logic, you can click RE-EVALUATE SUBMISSIONS to run every student’s solution again. This ensures all grades remain accurate and up-to-date with the latest requirements.

C# Course Coordinator at Khorata
After teaching C# and game development with traditional methods for 1 year, we switched to Profound Academy, and our students managed to cover twice as much material in the same period of time. By the end of the course, they had a much better understanding of the whole material and were much more independent when writing code and working on their final projects. The platform made it very straightforward for our teachers to transfer high-quality knowledge to the students.
