Grading student SQL queries manually is a tedious and error-prone process. Earlier work on testing correctness of student SQL queries, such as the XData system, can be used to test the correctness of a student query. However, in case a student query is found to be incorrect there is currently no way to automatically assign partial marks. Partial marking is important so that small errors are penalized less than large errors. Manually awarding partial marks is not scalable for classes with large number of students, especially MOOCs, and is also prone to human errors.
