<h2>History<a class="headerlink" href="#history" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>At FOSSEE, Nishanth had implemented a nice django based app to test for multiple-choice questions. Prabhu Ramachandran was inspired by a programming contest that he saw at PyCon APAC 2011. Chris Boesch, who administered the contest, used a nice web application Singpath that he had built on top of GAE that basically checked your Python code, live. This made it fun and interesting.</p>
<p>Prabhu wanted an implementation that was not tied to GAE and hence wrote the initial cut of what is now &#8216;Yaksh&#8217;. The idea being that anyone can use this to test students programming skills and not have to worry about grading their answers manually and instead do so on their machines.</p>
<p>The application has since been refactored and maintained by FOSSEE Developers.</p>
