Given that an agile project is underway and a sprint is in progress, what is the most effective action for a team to take if key stakeholders introduce new requirements that might affect the current sprint goals?
Halt the current sprint and start planning a new sprint to incorporate the new requirements.
Ignore new requirements until the current project phase is complete to avoid disruptions.
Record the new requirements in the product backlog for prioritization and planning in subsequent sprints.
Continue with the sprint without acknowledging the new requirements to maintain the sprint's velocity.
In agile projects, new requirements introduced by stakeholders during a sprint are not immediately acted upon; instead, these requirements should be added to the backlog for consideration in future sprint planning. This allows the team to maintain focus and finish the current sprint objectives without derailing the sprint, whilst also respecting the agile principle of welcoming changing requirements for future iterations.
