Pair Work

A practice where two team members collaborate at the same time on a single task or backlog item.

Key Points

  • Two people jointly focus on one work item to increase quality and speed.
  • Enables real-time review, faster feedback, and knowledge sharing.
  • Pairs can rotate to spread expertise and reduce single points of failure.
  • Best used for complex, high-risk, or time-sensitive work.

Example

During a sprint, a developer and a tester pair on a critical user story: the developer implements the feature while the tester designs and runs tests in parallel, providing immediate feedback and preventing defects from reaching later stages.
