A business analyst is reviewing the product backlog prior to a scheduled release. They notice that several high-priority user stories remain uncompleted. What should the business analyst conclude about the product's readiness for delivery?
The product has completed many user stories but faces readiness challenges.
Uncompleted high-priority user stories impact the product's readiness for delivery.
The product proceeds to delivery with pending user stories remaining.
Uncompleted high-priority user stories impact the product's readiness for delivery. High-priority user stories represent essential functionalities required to meet the project's objectives and stakeholder expectations. If these are not completed, the product may not deliver its intended value, and stakeholders could be dissatisfied. Therefore, the business analyst should recognize that these outstanding items affect readiness and recommend addressing them before delivery.
Option 1 is incorrect because having many completed user stories does not ensure readiness if critical ones are still pending. Option 3 is incorrect because proceeding to delivery with uncompleted high-priority user stories may result in a product that lacks essential features, compromising its success.
