Tasks are written across 16 widely-used programming languages, with real-world instructions and matching unit tests authored per-language rather than mechanically translated from a single source language, so multilingual results reflect genuine per-language task design rather than translation artifacts. Correctness is verified using **SandboxFusion**, ByteDance's open-sourced code execution sandbox that supports many languages and packages behind a standardized HTTP API, incorporating over 10 coding-related evaluation datasets under one uniform interface. The dataset ships with distinct instruction-language configurations — this page covers the English-instruction (`en`) split, evaluating a model's full-stack coding ability when prompted in English. ## Benchmark Specifications | Field | Value | |---|---| | Task category | Coding / full-stack, multilingual, execution-verified | | Metric | pass@1 (execution-based correctness via SandboxFusion) | | Number of tasks | ≈1,690 (English-instruction split of ~3,374 total dataset rows) | | Languages | 16 programming languages | | Saturation | Medium — varies substantially by language and application domain | | Created by | ByteDance Seed Foundation Code Team (Siyao Liu, He Zhu, Jerry Liu, et al.) | | Source paper | [Liu et al. 2024](https://arxiv.org/abs/2412.00535) | | GitHub | [bytedance/FullStackBench](https://github.com/bytedance/FullStackBench) | | Dataset | [ByteDance/FullStackBench](https://huggingface.co/datasets/ByteDance/FullStackBench) | ## How FullStackBench (English) Is Scored Each task is graded pass@1 via actual code execution against unit tests inside the SandboxFusion sandbox — a submission either passes all associated tests or it doesn't. Because the dataset spans 16 languages and 5+ application domains, results are typically broken down by language and domain rather than reported as a single aggregate score, since performance can vary substantially across both axes. ## State-of-the-Art Results > Scores vary substantially by language and application domain. See the [official GitHub repository](https://github.com/bytedance/FullStackBench) and paper for the full per-model, per-language, per-domain breakdown. ## FullStackBench (English) on Benchgen > No Benchgen results yet — [be the first to run FullStackBench (English)](/benchmarks/bytedance-seed-foundation-code-team/fullstackbench-english). ## FullStackBench (English) vs Other Benchmarks | Benchmark | What it tests | Tasks | Saturation | |---|---|---|---| | **FullStackBench (English)** | Multi-domain, multilingual full-stack coding | ≈1,690 | medium | | [HumanEval+](/benchmarks/jiawei-liu-chunqiu-steven-xia-yuyao-wang-lingming-zhang-university-of-illinois-urbana-champaign/humaneval) | Rigorous single-function Python generation | 164 | high | | [RepoBench](/benchmarks/tianyang-liu-canwen-xu-julian-mcauley-uc-san-diego/repobench) | Repository-level code completion | — | medium | FullStackBench is distinguished from narrow single-function benchmarks like HumanEval+ by spanning real-world application domains (data analysis, ML, web/desktop dev) across 16 languages rather than isolated algorithmic Python problems. ## Run FullStackBench (English) on Your Model Benchgen lets teams evaluate their own coding model against FullStackBench's English-instruction tasks across 16 languages and real-world domains, surfacing language- and domain-specific weaknesses a single-language benchmark would miss. ## Frequently Asked Questions

What is FullStackBench?

FullStackBench is a ByteDance Seed benchmark covering full-stack programming across 16 languages and real-world application domains, executed via the SandboxFusion sandbox; this page covers its English-instruction split.

What does a good FullStackBench score look like?

Because performance varies substantially by language and domain, a strong result means maintaining high pass@1 consistently across languages and domains rather than excelling in only one or two.

Who created FullStackBench?

FullStackBench was created by the ByteDance Seed Foundation Code Team, published in late 2024.
