You’re working with a cross-functional Agile team building an e-commerce platform. During release planning, a senior stakeholder pushes to include every backlog item marked as “High Priority” in the first release. The team estimates this will take 5 sprints and may compromise quality due to time constraints.
What is the best approach in this situation?
A. Follow stakeholder’s request and aim to deliver all items
B. Split high-priority items across releases based on business value
C. Ask the product owner to reassign priorities to lower some items
D. Extend sprint duration to accommodate all requested features✅ Correct Answer: B. Split high-priority items across releases based on business value

❌ Incorrect. Reprioritization may be helpful, but the issue is not just priority—it’s delivery timing. Business value and release cadence must be considered.D. Extend sprint duration to accommodate all requested features
