    PMP · Question 77 · Task 7: Address and remove impediments, obstacles, and blockers for the team

    During a sprint review, the development team reports that they cannot complete user story testing because the shared test environment is experiencing intermittent performance issues that make test results unreliable. This is blocking multiple stories from being marked as done. What should the project manager do FIRST?

    Answer options:

    A.

    Accept that the stories cannot be completed this sprint and move them to the next sprint backlog

    B.

    Collaborate with the infrastructure team to identify immediate solutions or alternative testing approaches

    C.

    Have the team focus on development of new stories while the testing environment issues are resolved

    D.

    Escalate the infrastructure issue to senior management for immediate priority attention

    How to approach this question

    Look for proactive approaches that actively work to remove impediments and explore alternatives rather than accepting delays or working around problems.

    B

    Common mistakes
