What is the Technical debt that your project had encountered (if any)? a. None. Your developers will work extended hours to pay back the Technical debt in next iteration so it can be ignored for now. b. 200 Story points c. None. “Velocity” the great equalizer will take care of Technical debt. d. 100 Story points What is the major advantage of using Incremental Model? a.
