Choose cceval if…
- Tags unique to cceval: benchmark, code-completion, cross-file, evaluation-tool.
- You need to evaluate the performance of cross-file code completion systems that can handle multiple programming languages simultaneously
- More recently updated (last pushed Aug 15, 2025).
When NOT to use cceval
- Your evaluation needs are focused solely on single-file or intralingual code completion benchmarks
- You require real-time data access or live updates; cceval provides pre-packaged datasets that need to be manually obtained and uncompressed
Choose bigcode-evaluation-harness if…
- Requirements: Users must have Docker installed to leverage the isolated execution environments for model output evaluation..
- Tags unique to bigcode-evaluation-harness: autoregressive models, code generation, docker, python.
- bigcode-evaluation-harness ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.
- When you need to isolate the evaluation environment from your local development setup, ensuring that no external variables affect the outcomes of model performance assessments.
When NOT to use bigcode-evaluation-harness
- When you require real-time evaluation without the overhead of generating outputs locally and then evaluating them within isolated environments via Docker.
- If your model's evaluation process does not necessitate autoregressive setup or the security features provided by Docker, using bigcode-evaluation-harness might introduce unnecessary complexity.
