سوال ۲۲ از ۳۷

۲۲. سوال

Your new project is faced with a challenging deadline and an anxious customer. After consulting with the team, you have assured the customer that the best way to develop the required features on time will be to follow an agile approach. The customer agrees to this somewhat reluctantly, since he isn’t familiar with agile. However, the next week he hears that your team has spent “two whole days” doing t-shirt sizing of the product features, and yet they still haven’t produced a viable schedule model! He calls you into his office to explain how this is justified, given the limited time available. What do you say?

Agile teams need to develop quick, coarse-grained estimates to do just enough planning to get the work started.
The agile approach means doing as little planning as possible so the team can focus on what they do best, delivering value.
Agile developers don’t plan when the work will be finished, they just start the work and get as much done as they can before the deadline.
There is still too much uncertainty about the product features to develop a schedule model yet; the team will do that later.

You’re managing a project to develop a new mobile application for the inventory tracking and-control system of a restaurant franchise organization. Schedule is the highest-priority constraint for the leadership team, but the franchise owners are most concerned about cost and the quality of the application. If there are bugs and errors in the system, they will pay higher costs on waste or lost sales. But investing a lot of effort into delivering great functionality could be expensive.
