[All ISTQB-CTFL Questions]

Which review type, also known as a ''buddy check'', is commonly used in Agile development?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

In Agile development, an informal review, often referred to as a 'buddy check,' is a common review type. Informal reviews are unstructured and involve a pair of colleagues reviewing each other's work to identify defects early and provide immediate feedback. This type of review is less formal than inspections or walkthroughs and is particularly suitable for Agile environments where rapid feedback and flexibility are essential.

Wait, isn't buddy check just a term for informal reviews?

Retrospective? Really? I thought that was just for airing grievances and eating pizza.

Pair programming, of course! That's the classic "buddy check" in Agile.

I feel like it’s called "buddy check," but I can't recall if that’s specifically tied to Agile or just a general term used in software development.

I practiced a question like this before, and I believe the answer is "code review," but I might be mixing it up with something else.

I remember studying Agile practices, and I think "peer review" might be the term, but it could also be "code review."

I think the review type we're looking for is "pair programming," but I'm not entirely sure if that's the same as a buddy check.

I've got a good feeling about this one. In Agile, the team works closely together, so a "buddy check" is probably a type of code review or design review that team members do for each other. I'm going to go with that.

Okay, let me think this through step-by-step. Agile development emphasizes collaboration, so a "buddy check" must be some kind of review process between team members. I'm going to go with peer review as my answer.

Ugh, I'm not sure about this one. Is it like a pair programming thing? Or maybe it's related to user stories? I'll have to guess and hope for the best.

Hmm, I think I've heard of this "buddy check" thing before, but I can't quite remember the exact term for it. I'll have to think this one through.
