# Moulinette

The **Mini Moulinette** is an automated testing tool used at 42 School to evaluate students' code submissions for exercises. It runs a series of predefined tests to check if the code meets the given requirements, such as correct functionality, output, and adherence to rules (e.g., no forbidden functions).

#### Useful Sides:

* **Instant Feedback:** Provides immediate results on code correctness.
* **Automated Testing:** Ensures code works as expected with predefined test cases.
* **Prepares for Final Evaluation:** Helps prepare students for the full Moulinette testing in final projects.
* **No Human Bias:** Offers consistent, objective grading based on test outcomes.\

  For me it helped a lot, but if you can create your own, do not be lazy do it. \
