What is the first step in hypothesis-driven development within SAFe?
Answer: Define a testable hypothesis about customer behavior or need
Hypothesis-driven development begins with formulating a testable hypothesis about what customers need or how they will behave.
A SAFe team runs an A/B test on a new feature to see which version drives more engagement. This is an example of what?
Answer: A hypothesis validation experiment
A/B testing is a classic hypothesis validation experiment that compares two variants to determine which better satisfies the hypothesis.
Which SAFe DevOps principle supports running small experiments to reduce risk before committing to a full feature rollout?
Answer: Fast feedback loops through experimentation
Fast feedback loops through small, cheap experiments reduce risk by validating assumptions before full investment is made.
What does 'validated learning' mean in the context of SAFe Continuous Exploration?
Answer: Gaining empirical evidence that confirms or refutes what customers actually want
Validated learning means using real user data and experiments to confirm or refute hypotheses about customer needs with empirical evidence.
In SAFe, a 'pivot' decision during Continuous Exploration typically means the team will:
Answer: Change strategic direction based on validated learning from experiments
A pivot in SAFe means changing strategy or approach based on empirical evidence gathered from hypothesis testing, not abandonment.
Which role in SAFe is primarily responsible for defining and prioritizing hypotheses to be tested during Continuous Exploration?
Answer: Product Owner and Product Manager
Product Owners and Product Managers define and prioritize hypotheses based on customer research, market data, and business goals.
