'Working software is the primary measure of progress' — according to the Agile Manifesto, what does this mean for adaptive teams?
Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: Completing usable, working increments is how progress is measured — not documentation, meetings, or % completion estimates

Explanation

This Agile Manifesto principle means that actual working functionality — not documents, not plans, not 'partially done' work — is the true measure of progress. A team that writes 50 pages of design documents has made less measurable progress than a team that delivers a working feature users can interact with. This focus on tangible deliverables provides honest, verifiable progress measurement.
