What is one outcome of an integration point?

Integration points in agile development serve as critical junctures where progress is reviewed, and

decisions can be made on whether to continue on the current path or pivot based on new

information.

Integration Points: Regular integration points help in verifying progress, ensuring alignment with

objectives, and assessing whether the current approach is delivering the desired outcomes.

Pivot or Persevere: These points provide the opportunity to pivot if necessary. Teams can change

their course of action based on feedback, new insights, or changing requirements, ensuring that the

final product meets the needs effectively.

Risk Mitigation: Regular integration reduces the risk of late discovery of issues and ensures that the

product evolves in a way that adds value continuously.
