Which of the following services are appropriate for a Scrum Master in regard to the Daily Scrum? Make sure that all 3 questions have been answered by each member of the team. Keep track of whether each team member has a chance to speak. Lead the discussions of the Development Team. All of the above. Teach the Development Team to keep the Daily Scrum within the 15 minutetime-box.
Cross-functional teams are optimized to work on one technical layer ofa system only (e.g. GUI, database, middle tier, interfaces). False True.
What are three benefits of self-organization? (Choose three.) Increased accuracy of estimates. Increased rule compliance. Increased self-accountability Increased creativity. Increased commitment.
What enhances the transparency of an increment? Doing all work needed to meet the definition of "Done" Reporting Sprint progress to the stakeholders daily Updating Sprint tasks properly in the electronic tracking tool. Keeping track of and estimating all undone work to be completed in a separate Sprint.
What is the purpose of a Sprint Review? To build team sprint. To take time to judge the validity of the project. To inspect the product increment with the stakeholders and collect feedback on next steps. To review the Scrum Team's activities and processes during the Sprint.
Who creates the definition of "Done"? The Scrum Team, in a collaborative effort where the result is the common denominator of all members' definition. The Product Owner as he/she is responsible for the product's success. The development organization (or Development Team if none is available fromthe development organization). The Scrum Master as he/she is responsible for the Development Team's productivity.
A Sprint Retrospective should be held: At the end of the last Sprint in a project or a release. Only when the Scrum Team determines it needs one. At the beginning of each Sprint. At the end of each Sprint.
Why should the Product Owner be present at the Daily Scrum? To hear about impediments in functionality. To participate as a Scrum Team member. To represent the stakeholders' point of view. He/She doesn't need to be there.
When should a Sprint Goal be created? It must be established before Sprint Planning in order to begin planning. During Sprint Planning. At any time during the Sprint. It should have been created in the previous Sprint during Product Backlogrefinement. A Sprint Goal is not mandatory in Scrum.
Why does a Development Team need a Sprint Goal? A Sprint Goal ensures that all of the Product Backlog items selected forthe Sprint are implemented. The Development Team is more focused with a common yet specific goal. Sprint Goals are not valuable. Everything is known from the Product Backlog. A Sprint Goal only gives purpose to Sprint 0.
Which are properties of the Daily Scrum? (Choose two.) It is held first thing in the morning. It is fifteen minutes or less in duration. It consists of the Scrum Master asking the Team members the three questions. Its location and time remain constant. It is free from and designed to promote conversation. It is facilitated by the team lead.
If two Scrum Teams are added to the development of a product that previously had only one Scrum Team, what will be the immediate impact on the productivity of the original Scrum Team? Its productivity is likely to decrease. Its productivity is likely to stay the same. Its productivity is likely to increase.
Sprint burndown charts are an efficient tracking tool, because they show: How many Product Backlog items remain. How many hours have been worked by each Development Team member. An estimate of the total work remaining for the Sprint. How much effort has gone into a Sprint.
A Scrum Team has been working on a product for nine Sprints. A newProduct Owner comes in, understanding he is accountable for the Product Backlog. However, he is unsure about his responsibilities. Which twoactivities are part of the Product Owner role according to Scrum?(Choose two.) Interacting with stakeholders. Providing the Development Team with detailed specifications. Ensuring that the most valuable functionality is produced first, at alltimes. Describing features as Use Cases. Creating detailed functional test cases.
When is the Sprint Backlog created? During the Sprint Planning meeting. At the beginning of the project. During the Sprint. Prior to the Sprint Planning meeting.
A new developer is having continuing conflicts with existing Development Team members and creating the hostile environment. If necessary, who is responsible for removing the team member? The Development Team is responsible, and may need help from the ScrumMaster. The Scrum Manager is responsible, because he/she removes Impediments. The hiring manager is responsible, because he/she hired the developer. The Product Owner is responsible, because he/she controls the return on investment (ROI).
When is implementation of a Product Backlog item considered complete? At the end of the Sprint. When all work in the Sprint Backlog related to the item is finished. When the item has no work remaining in order to be potentially released. When QA reports that the item passes all acceptance criteria.
Which statement best describes the Sprint Backlog as outcome of the Sprint Planning? Every item has a designated owner. Each task is estimated in hours. It is a complete list of all work to be done in a Sprint. It is the Development Team's plan for the Sprint. It is ordered by the Product Owner.
During a Sprint Retrospective, for what is the Scrum Master responsible? Prioritizing the resulting action items. Participating as a Scrum team member and facilitating as requested orneeded. Summarizing and reporting the discussions to management. Acting as a scribe to capture the Development Team's answers.
Who is responsible for clearly expressing Product Backlog items? The business analyst who represents the Product Owner in the DevelopmentTeam. The Scrum Master, or the Scrum Master may have the Development Team do it. The Scrum Master. The Product Owner.
User documentation is part of your definition of "Done". However, there aren't enough technical writers for all teams. Your Development Team doesn't have a technical writer. What should you do? Let the user documentation remain undone and accumulate until after the last development Sprint. It will then be done by any available technicalwriters. Form a separate team of technical writers that will work on an on-demand basis for the various Product Owners. Work order will be first in, first out. Your Development Team is still responsible for creating user documentation.In this case, the Development Team members will write it. Wait until you have a technical writer on your Development Team to take care of this.
A member of the Development Team takes the Scrum Master aside toexpress his concerns about data security issues. What should the Scrum Master do? Tell the Product Owner to stop further development of features until theissues are fixed. Add security to the definition of "Done". Ask the person to share the issue with the team as soon as possible. Create a Product Backlog item for security. Go check with the testers.
A Scrum Master is keeping a list of open impediments, but it is growing and he/she has been able to resolve only a small portion of the impediments. Which three techniques would be most helpful in this situation? (Choose three.) Consulting with the Development Team. Arranging a triage meeting with all project managers. Prioritizing the list and working on them in order. Alerting management to the impediments and their impact.
A properly functioning Scrum Team will have at least one Release Sprint and may well have several. True False.
Which three behaviors demonstrate that a team is self-organizing?(Choose three.) Development Team members collaboratively selecting their own work during the Sprint. The Development Team has all the skills needed to create a releasableIncrement. The Scrum Master is no longer needed. Stakeholders walking in at the Daily Scrum to check progress and work withthe Scrum Master to optimize the functional scope for the Sprint. The Development Team inviting external people to the Sprint Planning to askthem how to turn a Product Backlog item into an Increment via a completeand detailed Sprint Backlog. The Development Team members are working within the boundaries of theirfunctional description and nicely handing off work from analyst to developer to tester to integration. The Development Team creating their own sprint backlog, reflecting all workthat is part of the definition of "Done". The Product Owner doesn't need to be at Sprint Retrospectives.
Which two things are appropriate for a Scrum Master to do if the Development Team doesn't have the engineering tools and infrastructureto completely finish each selected Product Backlog item? (Choose two.) Coach the Development Team to improve its skills, tools, and infrastructure over time and adjust the Definition of "Done" accordingly. Refocus the current Sprint on establishing the Development Team's infrastructure instead of delivering an increment. Declare the Development Team not ready for Scrum. Encourage the Product Owner to accept partially "Done" increments until thesituation improves. Have the Development Team establish a Definition of "Done" that is actually possible to achieve given current circumstances.
Which of the following best describes an increment of working software? Additional features in a usable state that complement those delivered inprevious iterations. An automated test suite to verify functionality delivered in previous iterations. A new user interface design for functionality delivered in previous iterations. A decomposition of all Product Backlog items into tasks for future Sprint Backlog lists. UML diagrams that describe how to deliver functionality in futureiterations.
Which output from Sprint Planning provides the Development Team with a target and overarching direction for the Sprint? The release plan. Sprint Review minutes. The Sprint Backlog. The Sprint Goal.
A Scrum Master is essentially the same thing as a traditional PM(Project Manager). True False.
Scrum has a role called "Project Manager". True False.
During a Sprint, when is new work or further decomposition of workadded to the Sprint Backlog? During the Daily Scrum after the Development Team approves them. When the Scrum Master has time to enter them. As soon as possible after they are identified. When the Product Owner identifies new work.
A product Increment must be released to production at the end of each Sprint. False True.
User documentation is part of your definition of "Done". However, there aren't enough technical writers for all teams. Your Development Team doesn't have a technical writer. What should you do? Your Development Team is still responsible for creating user documentation.In this case, the Development Team members will write it. Let the user documentation remain undone and accumulate until after the last development Sprint. It will then be done by any available technical writers. Wait until you have a technical writer on your Development Team to take care of this. Form a separate team of technical writers that will work on an on-demand basis for the various Product Owners. Work order will be first in, firstout.
The Sprint Goal is a result of Sprint Planning, as is the Sprint Backlog. True False.
The Daily Scrum is an event that happens every day. What would be three key concerns if the frequency were to be lowered to every two or three days?(Choose three.) The Product Owner cannot accurately report progress to the stakeholders. The Sprint plan may become inaccurate. The Scrum Master loses the ability to update the Gantt chart properly. Opportunities to insect and adapt the Sprint Backlog are lost. Impediments are raised and resolved more slowly. Too much work is spent updating the Scrum board before the meeting.
Who can abnormally terminate a Sprint? The Development Team or its members. The Product Owner The Scrum Master The Stakeholders.
Which two of the following are true about the Scrum Master role?(Choose two.) The Scrum Master helps those outside the team interact with the Scrum Team. The Scrum Master teaches the Development Team to keep the Scrum meetings totheir time-box. The Scrum Master assigns tasks to Development Team members when they needwork. At the Sprint Review, the Scrum Master identifies what has been "done" and what has not been "done". The Scrum Master is responsible for updating the Sprint Burndown.
What is the best suited structure for Development Teams in order toproduce integrated Increments? Each Development Team works only one technical layer of the system (e.g.GUI, database, middle tier, interfaces). Each Development Team develops functionality from beginning to endthroughout all technical layers.
How should Product Backlog items be chosen when multiple Scrum Teamswork from the same Product Backlog? The Product Owner should provide each team with its own Product Backlog. The Development Teams pull in work in agreement with the Product Owner. Each Scrum Team takes an equal numbers of items. The Scrum Team with the highest velocity pulls Product Backlog items first. The Product Owner decides.
Who has the final say on the order of the Product Backlog? The Stakeholders. The Product Owner. The Development Team. The CEO. The Scrum Master.
