As an agile project manager, you need to define the iteration duration for your team. Which of the following is the BEST approach to determine the logical unit of your iterations?
Adjust iteration lengths to accommodate the completion of all planned tasks.
Vary iteration durations based on team workload and resource availability.
Set iterations to a fixed duration, maintaining a consistent timebox for each.
Conclude iterations when the client reviews and accepts the deliverables.
In agile methodologies, iterations (also known as sprints) are timeboxed periods with a fixed duration, typically between 2 to 4 weeks. This consistency allows the team to plan effectively, measure progress, and maintain a steady workflow. Therefore, choosing a consistent and fixed duration for iterations is the best approach. Selecting iteration lengths based on the time required to complete work items (Option A) or varying durations based on workload or availability (Option C) can lead to unpredictability and disrupt the team's rhythm. Ending iterations upon client acceptance of deliverables (Option D) misunderstands the purpose of timeboxing, as iterations should conclude after the set time period, not after external approval.
