Which of the following statements BEST explains how short, time-boxed iterations used in an adaptive (agile/iterative) project life-cycle help reduce overall project risk?
They defer most testing activities until the end of the project, so defects are discovered after the majority of development is complete.
They create frequent opportunities to incorporate stakeholder feedback and make course corrections before problems escalate.
They increase the batch size of work delivered, reducing the frequency of reviews and changes.
They allow the project team to finalize all requirements up front, eliminating the need for change control later.
Short iterations provide frequent checkpoints where the team and stakeholders review working increments, gather feedback, and adjust the plan as needed. This continual inspection and adaptation uncovers problems early-before they grow-and allows corrective action in the next iteration, thereby lowering technical and business risk. Approaches that lock down all requirements up front or postpone testing and reviews do not achieve this risk-reduction benefit.
