Modern educational institutions use static methods e.g. tests in computer-based knowledge assessment systems. Tests have pattern questions with limited number of answers. Use of such methods does not guarantee objective knowledge assessment – numbers of the right answers could be guessed or memorized in advance. Practical skills can be tested by assigning programming tasks. In order to complete practical tasks students need good knowledge in the fields examined. This leads to better assessment of student knowledge in theory and practice. Teachers get better feedback. However practical tasks need considerable amount of time to be examined in detail which most teachers do not have. When assignments are tested superficially students tend to plagiarize and so the problem gets even deeper. A survey by Donald McCabe of approximately 6000 students revealed that 74% of engineering students reported engaging in some form of academic dishonesty. The goal of this work was to build a computer-based system to assess software quality and detect plagiarism. The system was designed and implemented. Experimental tests have shown good results. The system is intended to be used in future courses and gradually improved by other students.
