Abstract
Pair programming (PP) is an agile approach in which two people work together in a systematic way to develop functional software applications in a short time. PP has been used both in the software industry and in programming education and has demonstrated its effectiveness in both scenarios. This paper shows a characterization of the current literature landscape with published papers found in Web of Science from 2000 to October 30, 2022. The results show that the United States is the leader in PP research, while Spanish-speaking countries have an incipient production. On the other hand, although the number of publications has increased in recent years, scientific production on this topic is still scarce. The current outlook reveals that there is still a wide potential to carry out research projects and contribute to the generation of knowledge about PP
