Team programming
open-in-new
<p>In <a href="/facts/Software_engineering/KX6cE9kz">software engineering</a>, team programming is a <a href="/facts/Project_management/JgQVSU3o">project management</a> strategy for coordinating task distribution in <a href="/facts/Computer_software/RP79lVSW">computer software</a> <a href="/facts/Software_development/UUfsAaYY">development</a> projects, which involves the assignment of two or more <a href="/facts/Computer_programmer/WGTS1Jv9">computer programmers</a> to work collaboratively on an individual sub-task within a larger programming project. In general, the manner in which this term is used today refers to methods currently in vogue within the software development industry where multiple individuals work simultaneously on the same activity; in these systems, programmers are often grouped in pairs at the same <a href="/facts/Computer_workstation/h5tK4hTt">computer workstation</a>, one observing the other working on the software and alternating roles at time intervals. </p>
