I try to apply Quantified Task Management, which I specifically designed for this purpose. Code is incredibly subjective, but I believe tasks can be boiled down to four measurements:
If you compare the averages of these measures, for all tasks a developer has completed in a given time frame, it gives a pretty good picture...
...now, in practice, I don't really apply this as much as I should. Shame on me. :\
While I heard the first time about this practice and think it's interesting, I wonder how help you give to coworkers will get into account.
In practice I find myself often helping other developers out, answering their questions and peer work with them.
That's a good point, and I haven't thought about it. I think it usually doesn't factor in too much, as only one person (two in pair programming) is going to actually be doing the coding. Anyway, if someone spends all their time helping everyone else to the exclusion of their own work, that's a problem. In a team dynamic where help is mutual, it should all even out.
That said, perhaps as a metric, half of the points could be granted to someone who helps significantly? It's definitely harder to measure.
