Project Management Professional Practice Question

An agile project team consistently experiences significant delays toward the end of each iteration. The team reports that merging individual work reveals numerous conflicts and defects, which are difficult and time-consuming to resolve. To improve the development process and enable faster, more reliable delivery, what should the project manager recommend?

  • Formalize the integration phase to occur only at the end of each sprint to ensure all features for that sprint are complete before merging.

  • Postpone all integration testing until a dedicated hardening sprint after several development iterations to focus developers on building features without interruption.

  • Mandate comprehensive manual code reviews just before the sprint review to catch all defects at once in a dedicated quality session.

  • Implement continuous integration, where developers commit code to a shared repository multiple times a day, triggering automated builds and tests.
