Answer choices

Why each option matters

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.

Correct answer & explanation

Incorporate code review into the 'In Progress' workflow state.

The team should pull the review into their workflow, making it a collaborative, immediate step rather than an external dependency.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • Hire more senior developers to review code.

    Why it's wrong here

    Does not address the flow bottleneck.

  • Eliminate code reviews.

    Why it's wrong here

    This violates the principle of 'Build Quality In'.

  • Schedule all reviews for the end of the week.

    Why it's wrong here

    This creates a huge batch and more wait time.

  • Incorporate code review into the 'In Progress' workflow state.

    Why this is correct

    Making it part of the 'in progress' flow eliminates the wait state.
