Towards Using Continuous Integration Tools to Teach Programming Courses

This work proposes a study focused on Continuous Integration (CI) tools in teaching programming courses as well as for automatically grading student assignments. There are many automatic grading tools for students´ programming assignments which share most of their functionalities with CI tools. We would like to provide a methodology on how to implement this tool in teaching programming languages. We will evaluate and compare common CI tools and run experiments with students in programming courses.
