This technical report describes the state of autograding in CS 61B in the Spring 2023 semester. Students submit to Gradescope, and receive feedback generated and delivered by a suite of autograder tests; BSAG, an autograder configuration tool; and jh61b, a Java test framework on top of JUnit 5 and Truth assertions. Students receive feedback from a wide variety of tests, including black box unit tests and random tests. We also describe nontraditional automated tests, including a complexity analyzer, introspector, and a tester for student-written tests.
