<p class="">Željko and the rest of the QA/Release Engineering team were talking this over this week, and we are considering stopping the "Pair Programming for Fun and Profit" sessions.</p><p class="">Instead we are considering renewing our practice of creating publicly available presentations and workshops that will have a greater audience, and that will be permanently available into the future. We did a number of these in conjunction with the WMF Engineering Community team in the past and they were successful both for teaching participants in real time and also for later reference. </p>
<p class="">Of course we will still do pair programming as part of our regular work, it is part of our culture. However, basic information about the systems we use: the page-object gem; Cucumber; RSpec;Selenium and watir-webdriver, are widely available, and we encourage people to find them, read them and use them. </p>
<p class="">This will be a topic of discussion among us at Wikimania, and of course discussion is always welcome on this mail list.</p><p class="">-Chris </p><p class=""><br></p><p class=""><br></p></div></div>
