Example of automatically generated comments on a student's code

Providing students with context-specific feedback can be tedious and time-consuming but it can make a huge difference to students, especially those with little programming experience. Providing inline comments is one of the ways that context-specific feedback can be given to students and with AutoTest v2 it's possible to create these automatically.
