Software Development Practices Patterns: from Pair to Mob Programming

  • Herez Moise Kattan IME-USP

Resumo


Software development is a social activity. A positive aspect of techniques of software development like Pair Programming and Mob Programming, as collaborative approaches empathize those social aspects. Some benefits are, e.g., an increase in the technical level of the team, related with the dissemination of knowledge, collective responsibility, a cutback of the number of system defects, an increase of satisfaction, of motivation, on the collaboration, in the communication, and trust among the team members. This paper reviews the literature of Pair Programming and Mob Programming cataloging the variations of pairing and mobbing for developers with different expertise levels on distinct tasks with diverse complexity levels grouped by context.
