Python-katas

Purpose?

This project has been done in order for us to train practicing good practices such as:

Pair programming
Mob programming
TDD, tests pyramid
Emerging design
KISS, YAGNI and clean code practices
Discuss team standards
Put personal egos on the side
others...

Tools to use it

Mob timer advance timers:

online: https://mobti.me/
on local: http://mobster.cc/

Role playing mob programming: https://github.com/willemlarsen/mobprogrammingrpg#readme

How?

Rotation time: 5 to 10 minutes. The more people in a mob, the shorter is better. Changing driver:

IntelliJ Idea use code with me feature when in pair programming - for free usage
Visual studio code - extension Live Share and Live Share Audio
Push-pull when changing driver

Call:

Google meet
Zoom - Advantage you can give control to others

Roles at a basic level:

driver - person taking care of typing the code
navigator - person in charge of leading the discussion with the team and to decide in case of a conflict between team members
timekeeper - person in charge of the timer

After an hour, having a micro retro is a good thing: (3 words)

how did it feel?
Return on time invested between 0 and 3?
what did we do that I feel we should continue to do more of?
