Actual exam question for APMG-International's AgilePM-Practitioner exam

Question #: 15
Topic #: 1

[All AgilePM-Practitioner Questions]

Answer the following questions about the DSDM Lifecycle.

Decide if each observation is an appropriate application of Agile Project Management for

this project and select the option that supports your decision.

When the project was in the Feasibility phase it was initially proposed by the Finance

Manager that it was a fixed price for a fixed specification' project. The Project Manager

has decided that the best way to tackle it would be to leave the development of the least

valuable features of the product until last.

Is this an appropriate application of the DSDM lifecycle?

AYes, because the later parts of the project should reflect the least valuable features
of the product being built.

BYes, because in a DSDM project there is no detailed specification upfront.

CNo, because the Solution Development Team should decide which features are left
until last.

DNo, because the most valuable features of the project should be delivered last.

Option A sounds good, but I'm not sure the Finance Manager's idea of 'fixed price for fixed specification' is very Agile. I'll go with C.

I disagree. Option C is the right answer. The Solution Development Team should decide which features are left until last, not the Project Manager.

I think option B is the correct answer. In DSDM, there is no detailed specification upfront, so leaving the least valuable features until last makes sense.
