Résumé
Pair programming is a simple, straightforward concept. Two programmers work side-by-side at one computer, continuously collaborating on the same design, algorithm, code, and test. It allows two people to produce a higher quality of code than that produced by the summation of their solitary efforts. However, nothing is simple where people and personalities are involved—especially people who are accustomed to working alone. The leap to pair programming for a variety of software development projects is one that yields many benefits. However, it is also one that requires careful thought and planning.
Written as instruction for team members and leaders new to pair programming and as an improvement guide for experienced pair programmers, Pair Programming Illuminated explains both the principles underlying this method and its best practices. The authors, drawing on their own extensive experience, explain what works and what does not, what should be emphasized and what should be avoided. Two case studies further illuminate pair programming in practice: one in the context of extreme programming (XP), with which it often is associated, and one linked to a more disciplined software engineering process.
Key topics include:
- Principles for selecting partners
- Practical advice, such as furniture set-up, pair rotation, and weeding out bad pairs
- Seven habits of effective pair programmers
Special appendices include:
- A pair programming tutorial
- An economic analysis of pair programming
- An introduction to test-driven development
With this book in hand, you will quickly discover howpair programming fits the needs of your own organization or project. You then will see exactly how to get started with this method, and how to do it right.
