Question 13
Quinn has just joined an Agile team that is about to kick off a new project. They have recently discussed challenges in prior projects that related to long feedback cycles. After the discussion the team chooses to adopt a pair programming model. Why did they choose this over other models?
- A To allow for the speediest possible feedback cycle for Quinn’s work; issues are resolved almost immediately
- B To ensure Quinn is coding properly based on company standards
- C To ensure that any feature delivered has no defects
- D To make sure that someone else is supervising all of Quinn’s development work
Reveal correct answer
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is to allow for the speediest possible feedback cycle where issues are resolved almost immediately. The primary reason for using pair programming is to allow for quick validation and verification as work involves two individuals working on the code at the same time.The other responses are incorrect because it’s not expected that pair programming relates to the supervision of a developer; it does not prevent all defects; its primary focus is not on company standards.Discussion
