Our team is deciding between two options:
Option A: Spend 40% of next sprint on technical debt (refactoring, test coverage, documentation). Ship 60% of planned features.
Option B: Ship 100% of planned features. Schedule a debt sprint in Q3.
For each option, what are the likely outcomes?
- What risks emerge in the next 2 sprints?
- What's the cost if we don't address debt (velocity impact, morale impact, quality impact)?
- What's the cost if we delay features (stakeholder impact, competitive risk)?
