Mid-project, the city council changes ordinance fees for business licenses. What should happen to related acceptance criteria?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
When the fee ordinance flips, the acceptance checklist flips with it—old dollar amounts would pass the wrong test. Situation changed, criteria change.
Full Explanation
Acceptance criteria should adapt when the situation changes. A mid-project ordinance fee update requires revising criteria and associated tests so verification matches current rules. Keeping obsolete fee criteria, concealing the change, or treating mandatory fee checks as optional cosmetics breaks validation against the real requirement.
