Abstract
A system and method of evaluating a software program is disclosed. Information of a proposed problem is received from a user via the user interface and a problem profile associated with the proposed problem is created. A master software solution associated with the proposed problem is processed to identify one or more attributes, such as a first identified attribute. One or more first test cases associated with the first identified attribute in the master software solution are generated. An evaluation program including at least the one or more generated first test cases is generated. The generated evaluation program is configured to be applied to at least one submitted software program that is to be evaluated. At least the one or more first test cases is configured to be applied as one or more test inputs to a corresponding attributes in the submitted software program.
