Which of the following statements about the benefits of the Agile processes promoting early and frequent feedback is NOT true?
A.
In Agile projects where feedback is provided early and frequently, defects and incorrect requirements are caught earlier and those problems can be fixed faster.
B.
Feedback from well-conducted Agile retrospectives can be used to positively affect the development process over the course of the next iteration.
C.
Early and frequent feedback enables the team to deliver the features that represent the highest business value to the customer first.
D.
Increasing the frequency of feedback and communication between all the stakeholders involved in Agile projects eliminates all communication problems.
The Agile processes promote early and frequent feedback from the customers, users, testers, developers, and other stakeholders involved in the project. This feedback helps to ensure that the product meets the expectations and needs of the customers and users, and that the development process is continuously improved and adapted to the changing requirements and environment. However, increasing the frequency of feedback and communication does not eliminate all communication problems, as there may still be issues such as misunderstandings, misinterpretations, conflicts, or cultural differences that need to be resolved. Therefore, the statement D is not true, as it implies that communication problems are completely avoided by the Agile processes.
