PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP) — Question 121
While attending a conference, an agile practitioner learns of a new user interface (UI) framework that could benefit the team.
What should the agile practitioner do next?
Answer options
- A. Identify a team member to do a proof of concept using this framework
- B. Email the team directing them to immediately begin using this new framework
- C. Obtain feedback from team members on the new framework, and then suggest that the product owner create a backlog item to do a spike on it
- D. Discuss this option at the next retrospective
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is C because obtaining feedback from team members ensures that their insights are considered before making a decision to use the framework, and suggesting a backlog item for a spike allows the team to explore it experimentally. Option A is too narrow, as it doesn't involve team input. Option B is inappropriate because it mandates immediate action without consultation. Option D delays the decision to a retrospective, which may not be timely enough to evaluate the framework's potential benefit.
