I feel like the developers might not just follow the tester's guidelines right away. They might need some time to adjust to having a tester in the team.

I'm a bit confused about whether the tester can really focus on quality over time and budget. It seems like that might clash with agile's short-term goals.

I think I saw a practice question about how testers in agile teams might need to change their approach. Option D seems plausible since it aligns with agile principles.

I remember discussing how agile teams value collaboration, so maybe the tester will adapt well, but I'm not entirely sure if it will be without issues.

I feel pretty confident about this one. The tester will likely need to adjust their methods, but the agile team should be open to their expertise if they can adapt to the new context.

Okay, I've got an idea. The tester could shift their approach to verifying adherence to requirements rather than just reporting defects. That might help them align better with the agile team's goals.

Hmm, I think the tester might struggle to fit in with the agile team's way of working. Their focus on quality over time and budget could cause some friction.

I'm a bit confused here. The tester is used to a different approach, so I'm not sure how well they'll adapt to the agile team's priorities. I'll need to think this through carefully.

I bet the developers are just going to ignore the tester's guidelines and do their own thing. Agile teams can be a tough crowd for traditional testers.
