In an adaptive project, your team has completed a feature during an iteration. The feature functions as expected and passes all planned tests. During the review meeting, a stakeholder requests additional functionalities to be added to this feature. How should you interpret the completion status of this task?
The task met its initial goals since it satisfied the objectives established prior to the iteration.
The task is not complete because it does not include the stakeholder's new functionalities.
The task needs assessment based on stakeholder feedback indicating additional work.
The team can evaluate whether to pause progress until the new functionalities are addressed.
In adaptive project management, a backlog item is considered complete once it satisfies the Definition of Done and any acceptance criteria that were set before the iteration. Because the feature operates as intended and passes all planned tests, it meets those criteria and is therefore complete. A stakeholder's request for extra functionality is valuable feedback, but it becomes a new product backlog item for a future iteration rather than a reason to reopen the finished work. A statement that the task is incomplete because it lacks the new functionality overlooks the time-boxed nature of iterations. Likewise, reassessing or pausing current progress to incorporate new scope would disrupt the empirical cadence and negate the benefit of incremental delivery.
