What is a 'product demo' in agile and how does it contribute to requirements validation?
Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A demonstration of completed working software to stakeholders, enabling real-time validation feedback that confirms whether deliveries meet requirements and business expectations

Explanation

Product demos (sprint reviews) are validation events — not status updates. Stakeholders see working software and react to it, providing the most direct validation of whether requirements were correctly understood and implemented. The conversation during a demo often surfaces requirements gaps more effectively than any formal review.

**Why not A:** A product demo in agile is not a one-time event held only at project close. Agile methodologies emphasize iterative delivery with demos occurring at the end of each sprint or iteration. This regular cadence provides continuous feedback opportunities and ensures the team stays aligned with stakeholder expectations throughout the project.

**Why not B:** A product demo showcases working software that has actually been built, not a marketing presentation of something that does not yet exist. Demonstrating vaporware contradicts the agile principle of valuing working software and would undermine stakeholder trust by presenting aspirational capabilities as real deliverables.

**Why not D:** A product demo is not a technical presentation aimed exclusively at developers. Its primary audience is stakeholders, product owners, and end users who evaluate whether the delivered increment meets their needs. While developers attend, the purpose is to gather business feedback and validate requirements, not to discuss implementation details.
