Paired Programming & Personality Traits
Andrew J. Dick, Bryan Zarnett · 2002
Paired programming is an essential element of extreme programming – a methodology comprised of applying best practices to software development. Not all developers are suited for paired development however, and care should be taken when building a team for extreme programming. The team members should be selected with personality traits that are beneficial to paired programming. These personality traits can be determined through various interview techniques and the corresponding behavioral responses of the candidates.
