Answer / artak gasparyan

A team approach ("Buddy Testing") to coding and unit
testing. Using this concept, two-person teams are identified
and assigned programming tasks. Developer 'A' writes the
test cases for Developer 'B's specification before Developer
'B' begins coding. Developer 'B' does the same thing for
Developer 'A'. There are several advantages to this technique:

1) Objectivity is introduced into testing at a very low
level, which is seldom achieved during developmental testing.

2) By creating the test cases prior to coding, they can
serve as models of the program specification requirements.
Most developers will find that having the test cases
available prior to coding actually changes the way they
write their code. The test cases are designed to break the
code as well as show that it works. Many developers who
write test cases after coding merely demonstrate that their
code "does what it does." Don't underestimate the power of
buddy testing. This is applying the principle of
preventative testing at the lowest level.

3) Finally, buddy testing provides a certain degree of
cross-training on the application. If developer 'A' leaves,
then Developer 'B' has knowledge of his or her code.
