Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Answer: Following the plan — This is not one of the principles of agile software development.
Why:
The Agile Manifesto emphasizes responding to change over following a plan. Agile prioritizes flexibility, close collaboration, and frequent delivery of working software rather than sticking rigidly to an initial plan.
Customer involvement: Agile encourages continuous collaboration with customers and stakeholders to ensure the product meets real needs.
Embrace change: Agile welcomes changing requirements and adapts plans to deliver greater value.
Incremental delivery: Agile delivers working software frequently in small increments to get feedback and reduce risk.
Note: Agile does not forbid planning; it treats plans as adaptable tools rather than fixed rules to be followed regardless of new information.
