How Pair Programming Enhanced Development Speed, Focus, and Flow
Briefly

Ola Hast and Asgaut Mjölne Söderbom implement continuous delivery through pair and mob programming, along with Test-Driven Development (TDD). Their team does not engage in solo tasks or traditional code reviews. They emphasize teamwork by ensuring at least two developers collaborate on every task, facilitating knowledge sharing and collective problem solving. Frequent role switching every 7-10 minutes helps maintain focus. The approach also aids in onboarding new team members, gradually instilling a culture of collaboration and shared responsibility within their team of four developers.
The team relies on pair and mob programming with Test-Driven Development (TDD), and all tasks require at least two team members to ensure shared responsibility.
Pair programming is essential for onboarding new members, leading to a team culture where collaborative work becomes the norm, ensuring shared knowledge and skills.
Switching roles frequently, every 7 to 10 minutes, helps maintain energy and engagement, keeping focus sharp during pair programming sessions.
The decision to work collaboratively fosters a team environment where knowledge is shared, and issues are addressed collectively, leading to higher quality outputs.
