  • Abstract
    The pervasive impact of software in systems design as well as its changing character presents immense challenges for the education of software engineers. In the twenty first century, software engineers face the challenges of rapid change and uncertainty along with dependability and diversity. This paper presents the results of a study conducted to assess the pair programmers´ as well as individual programmers´ ability and eagerness to begin with early testing while writing programs or developing semester projects.
