The project lead should D. Follow the sprint plan by delivering the features established for the sprint and prioritize the issue in the backlog. In Agile methodologies, once a sprint has started, its scope is generally fixed. New issues discovered during the sprint should be added to the product backlog and prioritized for future sprints. This helps maintain the team’s focus and productivity, and ensures that issues are addressed in a structured and efficient manner

Selected Answer: D

D. Follow the sprint plan by delivering the features established for the sprint and prioritize the issue in the backlog. In the Scrum framework, it's generally recommended to stick to the sprint plan and prioritize the issue separately in the product backlog. The Scrum Team should maintain the sprint focus and commitment to delivering the planned sprint backlog items. Any new issues or changes identified during the sprint should be addressed in the product backlog and prioritized accordingly. This allows for better planning and ensures that the team completes the committed sprint scope while also addressing important issues in an organized manner during subsequent sprints.
