This article presents the LabPy - Phyton Programming Laboratory. It's a web environment with new specific features: i) dynamic content - web page content with in-line interpreter for program fragments; ii) programming exercises with immediate and automatic answer evaluation; iii) exercises with objective and subjective (discursive) questions, with instant automatic feedback as well; iv) multiple submissions for subjective exercises; v) elaboration of tests with automatic evaluation from the problem set. Labpy assists the student's practical learning and releases the professor from the most part of the activities' monitoring and correction.
