Mob Programming: A Whole Team Approach
summary
A whole-team development method where the entire group sits at the same workstation, rotates the driver at the keyboard every few minutes (about four), and the rest act as navigators who decide what goes in, producing continuous code review. Started at Hunter Industries five years earlier and grows to eight teams, moves delivery from “every few weeks” toward daily releases, cuts question wait time to under two minutes, and runs locally or remotely via shared-keyboard tools like Zoom or VNC using large 80in 4K monitors.
