Which activity in the Build phase is used to review the team's progress and improve processes?

• A. Sprint Retrospective
• B. Daily Standup
• C. Sprint Planning
• D. User Acceptance Testing

Answer: (A)

Sprint Retrospective focuses on inspecting progress and improving the way the team works. In the Build phase, after a sprint’s work is completed, the team reflects on what went well, what didn’t, and what could be done differently to speed delivery and reduce issues. It yields concrete actions to improve processes, which is why it’s the best fit for reviewing progress and driving ongoing improvement. Daily Standup is for quick, day-to-day coordination; Sprint Planning sets the plan for the next sprint; User Acceptance Testing verifies product functionality with users. So the retrospective is the activity that centers on how the team works and how to improve it.
