About
The BigCode Evaluation Harness provides a comprehensive framework for benchmarking the functional correctness of code generation models. It supports over 15 industry-standard benchmarks including HumanEval, MBPP, and the 18-language MultiPL-E suite, enabling researchers and developers to measure model performance objectively through automated unit testing. By facilitating complex workflows like instruction-model evaluation and quantized model testing, this skill serves as a vital tool for comparing coding capabilities and validating model improvements against the standards used by HuggingFace leaderboards.
