QuestionQ178

Delivery

An agile practitioner discovers that two separate team members are working to address the same significant project issue.

How should the agile practitioner handle this?

  • A Implement a burnup chart and add the issue resolution as a task to the product backlog for the customer to prioritize
  • B Add the issue to the kanban board and assign the it to the team member who has made the most progress on resolving it
  • C Conduct a root-cause analysis on the issue and identify related risks and risk response owners at the next retrospective
  • D Document all project issues in a common space and ask the team members to decide on task allocation principles
Explanation

Agile teams use transparent, shared work tracking and collaborative self-organization to avoid duplicated effort. Recording issues in a common space and having team members agree on task-allocation principles clarifies ownership while preserving team autonomy.
