A final Deployment phase should be held after Timebox C has completed.

A final Deployment phase should be held after Timebox C has completed.

BECAUSE Reason:

The Deployed Solution is assessed post-project to confirm whether the expected benefits have been achieved.

Answer: Agile Practitioner

For each line, here is the appropriate option from A to E that applies:

The rooms and facilities must be deployed into live use at the end of each Timebox.

D. False (Assertion) True (Reason)

Rationale: While Evolutionary Development and Deployment can be combined in a timebox, it is not necessary that the rooms and facilities must be deployed into live use at the end of each timebox. Deployment into live use typically occurs after several timeboxes when the product is ready for release.

The tasks associated with each Solution Development Timebox should be included in the Delivery Plan.

A. True (Assertion) True (Reason)

Rationale: The Delivery Plan should outline the schedule of timeboxes and include the high-level activities planned for the upcoming project increment, which encompasses the tasks for each Solution Development Timebox.

The development approach should have been agreed during Foundations.

A. True (Assertion) True (Reason)

Rationale: The development approach is indeed something that should be agreed upon during the Foundations phase, as the Development Approach Definition sets the stage for how Evolutionary Development will proceed.

The resources from Timber Tigers and Earth Excavations should have been engaged before the start of Evolutionary Development.

C. True (Assertion) False (Reason)

Rationale: It is true that resources should be engaged before Evolutionary Development starts to ensure commitment and resource availability. However, the commitment is typically based on the detailed planning and agreements made during Foundations, not solely on pre-agreed resource levels at the project level.

A final Deployment phase should be held after Timebox C has completed.

E. False (Assertion) False (Reason)

Rationale: Deployment phases are usually not a one-time, final phase but occur incrementally as part of the timeboxed development. Additionally, the assessment of whether the expected benefits have been achieved is part of the benefits realization process and not necessarily the sole reason to have a final Deployment phase post-Timebox C.
