You are the project manager for a top-secret software project for an agency of the U.S. government. Getting top-secret clearances for contractors takes quite a bit of time and waiting for clearances could jeopardize the implementation date. Your mission—should you choose to accept it—is to complete the project using internal resources. Your agile programmers are 80 percent of the way through the programming and testing when your agency appoints a new executive director. Your programmers are siphoned off this project to work on the executive director's hot new project before they finish this project. Which of the following are true regarding this question?

Select two

This project ended due to starvation.

You should perform the Validate Scope process which documents the level and degree of completion.

The DoD, such as describing the functionality, purpose, and how the functionality should be performed, helps determine if the functionality produced at the end of the iteration is ready for the customer to use.

The Validate Scope process documents the correctness of the work according to stakeholders' expectations and is not needed for an agile project.
