The public works work-order ART never runs architecture spikes, so integration surprises appear in the last iteration. How should the RTE connect exploration to quality?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Building the new work-order bridge without a soil sample is how you meet bedrock in week nine. Spikes are the ART's soil samples—cheap learning before the expensive pour. Skipping them is not going faster; it is scheduling the surprise.
Full Explanation
Intentional exploration, including architecture spikes and related enablers, is a quality practice that reduces late design and integration surprises. On a public works work-order ART, unknown interfaces and data constraints should be probed early while options are cheap. The RTE connects that exploration to built-in quality rather than treating spikes as waste. Forbidding enablers, parking unknowns until after commitment, or freezing architecture for a year increases late defect risk.
