PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP) — Question 99

During an iteration review, the agile team asserts that a product is complete because development and review were finished. The product owner disagrees, since the product has not been tested.
What should the agile practitioner do?

Answer options

• A. Work with the agile team and product owner to agree on the definition of done
• B. Ask the sponsor to determine whether the product is completed
• C. Plan another review after the product has been tested
• D. Add testing to the backlog, and have the product owner reprioritize

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because the agile practitioner should facilitate a discussion between the agile team and the product owner to create a shared understanding of what 'done' means, which typically includes testing. Options B and C are not proactive in resolving the disagreement, and D does not address the need for a clear definition of done, which is essential for Agile development.
