The expert pairs wrote tests with a higher instruction, line, and method coverage but were slower than the novices. The pairs within both groups switched keyboard and mouse possession frequently. Furthermore, most pairs did not share the input devices equally but rather had one partner who is more active than the other. %G English %Z TC 2 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01572544/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01572544/file/978-3-642-22386-0_17_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01572544 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01572544 %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-TC2 %~ IFIP-CEESET %~ IFIP-LNCS-4980
