Pair programming (PP) skills can be demonstrated by developers regardless of their experience level. While it traditionally takes time to adjust to pairing and partners, evidence suggests that novices can perform well in PP sessions. In contrast, experienced programmers may struggle with issues such as losing or drowning their partner. This inconsistency points to the need for further exploration into how specific skills are acquired and the influence of the context and partners involved in the process.
Getting accustomed to working in pairs and familiarizing with partners takes time, but exhibited pair programming skill does not solely depend on experience.
Some developers with no prior pair programming experience have skillfully navigated potential pitfalls, while others with extensive experience displayed problematic behavior.
