PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP) — Question 302

A product owner wants to create a release plan given the team is working in a chaotic environment. They want to set expectations about what is likely to be developed and in what timeframe for some of the stakeholders.

What should the product owner include in the release plan to achieve this?

Answer options

• A. The objective, iterations and underlying features, iteration timelines, other pre-release activities, dependencies, and responsible team.
• B. The key objectives and a brief description of each user story to be delivered in each iteration, release timelines, and release dependencies.
• C. The developer who will work on a specific feature and key DevOps engineering activities to be performed during each iteration for the code integration.
• D. The sequence of user stories to be developed in each iteration, along with their start and end timelines, dependencies, and responsible team.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Option A is correct because it comprehensively covers the necessary components for a release plan in a chaotic environment, including objectives, iterations, timelines, and the responsible team. The other options, while relevant, do not encompass all critical elements required for setting clear expectations and managing stakeholder communication effectively.
