QuestionQ17

Supporting Team Events

A team integrates and tests its Stories on the final day of the Iteration. This has become a recurring pattern over the past three Iterations. Why is this an anti-pattern?

Explanation

Deferring integration and testing until the end of every Iteration creates a sequential, mini-waterfall workflow. Agile teams should integrate and test continuously so that quality is built in and problems are found early.
