Software: Practice and Experience
📄 Abstract
Software developers must collaborate throughout the software life-cycle to create successful software systems. This paper evaluated two strategies that recommend collaborators based on co-changed files. We surveyed 102 real-world developers. We found that developers are interested and familiar with co-changed files from all strategies evaluated. These considerations are essential because coding offers opportunities for project contributions. Furthermore, these strategies can reduce barriers and improve collaboration among developers, with an up to 81% acceptance rate and potential for discovering further collaborators.
