How should a developer deliver a new feature after it is approved?

When a feature is approved, a developer must build and deliver the complete feature quickly. A developer must not ask for approval at each small step. A working, even if imperfect, feature is more useful than a perfect feature delivered late.

The rule

When a feature is approved, a developer must build and deliver the complete feature quickly.

A developer must not ask for approval at each small step. A working, even if imperfect, feature is more useful than a perfect feature delivered late.

Once a feature is approved and a budget is set, a developer should build and ship the entire feature. Do not stop to ask for permission at every small step. The user wants to see the full working feature. The user will give feedback on the complete feature. This feedback helps improve the feature.

A manager asks a developer to build a new 'Quote' tab. The manager approves the idea and budget. The developer should build the entire tab, from pasting text to showing voiced outcomes. The developer should not ask for approval after building only the paste function. The manager wants to test the full tab, even if it has small issues.
