Mob Programming: A System Literature Review, accepted for QUORS 2019 collocated with COMPSAC 2019

Makoto Shiraishi, Hironori Washizaki, Yoshiaki Fukazawa and Joseph Yoder, “Mob Programming: A System Literature Review,” 13th IEEE International Workshop on Quality Oriented Reuse of Software (QUORS 2019) collocated with COMPSAC 2019, Hosted by Marquette University, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA, July 15-19, 2019.

Here, we present a systematic literature review of mob programming. Mob programming is a new software development approach, a whole team (more than two people) works together on a code at the same time, in the same space, and on the same computer. The objective is to determine the current reported knowledge of mob programming. We searched two digital libraries, but only ten papers were found. These papers were analyzed and the benefits and risks of mob programming as well as the future research direction are discussed.
