PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP) — Question 233

An agile team is having difficulties in obtaining the participation of a true user to be a part of their team. In the absence of a true user, the development manager steps in to act as a proxy for the user.

What can the agile team do to improve value delivery in the absence of a true user?

Answer options

• A. Improve the velocity of each iteration.
• B. Add a variety of skilled programmers and expert testers to the team.
• C. Reduce the length of each iteration.
• D. Add a variety of users, such as business analysts and domain experts, to the team.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because adding a variety of users, such as business analysts and domain experts, can provide valuable insights and feedback that a true user would typically offer. The other options do not directly address the need for user input and may not improve value delivery without actual user involvement.
