Improving Code Quality, Velocity, and Team Cohesion with Pair Programming – Ramseur
Abstract:
Working in a globally distributed engineering team comes with a unique set of challenges. On the technical side, it is challenging to balance development velocity and code quality. On the team-building side, it is hard to create a sense of camaraderie when people only encounter each other in periodic video-based scrum calls. If either of these challenges sounds familiar, then come join me as I talk about how the Agile practice of pair programming is being applied to improve the overall level of code quality and velocity and to help build relationships on my team. You’ll learn practical tips for adapting pair programming to your team or organization, and gain an understanding of the power of pair programming as I share how my team is benefiting from applying this practice.
