Management and pair programming (21 jul 09)
'I don't work with councils, I don't work with collectives, I don't consult, I don't co-operate, I don't collaborate' - The Fountainhead
Make any change to anyone's code which
- passes all the tests but is simpler, or
- passes more tests
Never tell, ask or suggest how anyone else should code. Pair programming doesn't work. Test-driven development is the best thing to come out of Extreme Programming (Ward Cunningham and Kent Beck).
