 A Feature is a service that fulfills a stakeholder need and delivers business value. One key component of a Feature is the benefit hypothesis, which is a statement that describes the expected outcome and value of the Feature for the end user or the business1. The benefit hypothesis helps to define the scope, priority, and acceptance criteria of the Feature, and to measure its impact and effectiveness after implementation2. The benefit hypothesis also supports the Lean UX process model, which includes a definition of the Minimum Marketable Feature (MMF), a benefit hypothesis, and acceptance criteria3. The other options are not key components of a Feature, although they may be related to it. A business plan is a document that outlines the goals, strategies, and financial projections of a business or a product, and it may include some features, but it is not a component of a Feature. Key stakeholders are the people or groups who have an interest or influence in the product or the Feature, and they may provide input or feedback, but they are not a component of a Feature. A release plan is a schedule that shows when the product or the Feature will be delivered to the customers or users, and it may depend on the Feature, but it is not a component of a Feature. References: Features and Capabilities - Scaled Agile Framework, What Are The Minimum Requirements For A Feature?

 Continuous Deployment is the aspect of the continuous delivery pipeline that focuses on getting to production early for verification. It is the process of automatically releasing every change that passes the Continuous Integration tests to a staging or production environment. This enables faster feedback and validation from the end users and stakeholders, as well as reducing the risks and costs associated with manual deployments. References: Continuous Deployment, Continuous Delivery Pipeline, What is continuous delivery?

Differentiating business objectives are those that provide competitive differentiation and strategic advantage for the enterprise. They reflect the unique value proposition and vision of the enterprise and guide the portfolio strategy and decision-making. One example of differentiating business objectives is Strategic Themes, which are portfolio-level business objectives that connect a portfolio to the strategy of the enterprise. They are written in Objective and Key Result (OKR) format and influence the vision, budget, and backlogs for the portfolio, large solution, and program levels. They also provide business context and alignment for the agile teams and ARTs in the portfolio. References: Strategic Themes, SAFe 4.5 Reference Guide: Scaled Agile Framework for Lean Enterprises, How to use GOST + SAFe to increase your company’s agility

 The purpose of the Iteration review is to measure the team’s progress by showing working stories to the Product Owner and other stakeholders and getting their feedback. The Iteration review provides a way to gather immediate, contextual feedback from the team’s stakeholders on a regular cadence. The Iteration review also allows the team to demonstrate their contributions, receive feedback to improve the solution, and adjust the Team Backlog based on new opportunities1234. References: Iteration Review - Scaled Agile Framework, Iteration Review - Scaled Agile Framework, What is Iteration review in SAFe® 6.0? - premieragile.com, Iteration Review - Scaled Agile Framework

A component team is an Agile Team whose primary area of concern is focused on a specific component, or set of components, of the system. They leverage their technical skills and interest and focus on building robust components that provide for reliability, separation of concerns, foster re-use, and improve testability. Component teams are typically used when the system has complex, nonfunctional requirements that require deep technical expertise and specialization, such as performance, security, scalability, etc. Component teams can also enable high reuse of components across multiple solutions, reducing duplication and waste. However, component teams also introduce challenges, such as increased dependencies, coordination, and integration efforts with other teams, as well as reduced end-to-end value delivery and customer feedback. Therefore, component teams should be used sparingly and only when the benefits outweigh the costs. References: Organizing Agile Teams and ARTs: Team Topologies at Scale, Agile Teams, Feature Teams vs Component Teams, System Team, Feature Team vs Component Team in Agile

Assigning the same business value to all PI Objectives is an anti-pattern because it does not reflect the relative importance and priority of each objective. It also does not provide a clear guidance for trade-off decisions and impediment resolution. Business value should be assigned based on the expected benefits and outcomes of each objective, and it should be negotiated and agreed upon by the Business Owners and the teams. References: SAFe for Teams Student Workbook: materials and exercises from Lesson 4; [v6.scaledagileframework.com/team-pi-objectives/]

Team and Technical Agility is one of the core competencies of the Lean Enterprise that helps drive Agile Quality practices. This competency describes the critical skills and Lean-Agile principles and practices that high-performing Agile teams and teams of Agile teams use to create high-quality solutions for their customers. The main aspects of this competency are: team and technical agility, Agile team, Built-in Quality, and Agile architecture. Built-in Quality is a set of practices to help ensure that the outputs of Agile teams in business and technology domains meet appropriate quality standards throughout the process of creating customer value. Built-in Quality practices include test-first, test automation, continuous integration, refactoring, pair work, code reviews, exploratory testing, and more. References: Team and Technical Agility - Scaled Agile Framework, Built-In Quality - Scaled Agile Framework

 A quality of an Agile team is that it is cross-functional, meaning that it has all the skills and roles necessary to deliver value to the customer. A cross-functional team can work independently and collaboratively, without relying on external dependencies or handoffs. A cross-functional team can also adapt to changing requirements and feedback, and deliver work in small increments. References: Agile Teams - Scaled Agile Framework, Top 8 Characteristics of High-Performing Agile Team - Techtic Solutions, Agile Q&A: Team Qualities | Agile Alliance, Agile Team Roles and Responsibilities: A Brief Guide - Teamhood

Reducing batch size is one of the key ways to improve flow in product development. Smaller batches move faster and more smoothly through the system, reducing cycle time, variability, and waste. Smaller batches also enable faster feedback and learning, which leads to higher quality and customer satisfaction. By reducing batch size, the system can deliver more value in a given time, which means increased throughput12. References: Make Value Flow without Interruptions - Scaled Agile Framework, Principle #6 – Visualize and limit WIP, reduce batch sizes, and manage queue lengths - Scaled Agile Framework

The Scrum Master is a servant leader and coach for the Agile team. One of their main responsibilities is to remove impediments that hinder the team’s progress and performance. Impediments can be anything that blocks the team from delivering value, such as technical issues, dependencies, conflicts, or lack of resources. The Scrum Master helps the team identify and resolve impediments as quickly as possible, and escalates them to the appropriate level if needed. By removing impediments, the Scrum Master helps the team stay focused, productive, and motivated. References: Exam Study Guide: SP (6.0) - SAFe® Practitioner, [Scrum Master]
