PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP) — Question 286

The product owner is very concerned about work not being completed and tested before a hard release date. What can the agile team do to mitigate this risk?

Answer options

• A. High-risk features can be prioritized to fit into releases with less work in progress.
• B. Low-risk, low-value features can be prioritized and completed first.
• C. High-risk, low-value features can be evaluated by the team early in the release.
• D. The work in progress can be adjusted to get more reviews with high-risk features.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Prioritizing high-risk features allows the team to focus on critical elements that may impact the project's success before the deadline. The other options either focus on lower priority features or do not directly address the urgency of high-risk features, potentially leading to incomplete work by the release date.
