I am trying to add Jupyter Notebooks to my Coding and Robotics courses that use Python (these are high school students). I have been able to set up Jupyter Hub and make myself admin. I will begin to add some test users as well. In the long-term, I need an autograder and/or learning management system. I have begun the process of installing NBGrader but I am running into some install issues (which I will post in another thread). I am curious about what experience members of this forum may have with NBGrader and other options, even homemade processes for this.

Any advice is appreciated.

I have not tried it out yet, but [code-freak](https://github.com/codefreak/codefreak) looks pretty promising to me. It includes much more than only unit tests. So if you want to teach them coding (avoiding code smell etc.) it sounds like a solid solution.
