Many authors complain the lack of empirical studies which assess the benefits and the drawbacks of agile practices. Particularly, pair programming rises an interesting question for managers: does pair programming mean to pay two developers in the place of one? We realized an experiment to compare the productivity of a developer when performing pair programming and when working as solo programmer. We obtained empirical evidence that pair programming decreases the effort of the single programmer. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2005.
