A time-box is:
C
Explanation:
All events are time-boxed events, such that every event has a maximum duration. Once a Sprint begins, its duration is fixed
and cannot be shortened or lengthened. The remaining events may end whenever the purpose of the event is achieved,
ensuring an appropriate amount of time is spent without allowing waste in the process.
Who should manage the tasks of Development Team during the Sprint?
D
Explanation:
The Development Team is responsible for managing and tracking the progress of their work during a Sprint
Steven is a Scrum Master asked to assist in creating five new Scrum Teams that will be working to build a highly anticipated
product. He talks with them about the importance of being able to integrate their Increments by the end of their Sprints. This
includes the first Sprints. The product is very important to both the end users and the organization.
Of the choices raised by future team members, what would Steven encourage?
C
Explanation:
When a Product Backlog item or an Increment is described as Done, everyone must understand what Done means. If
there are multiple Scrum Teams working on the system or product release, the Development Teams on all the Scrum Teams
must mutually define the definition of Done to have a shared understanding of what it means for work to be complete, to
ensure transparency. Each Increment is additive to all prior Increments and thoroughly tested, ensuring that all Increments
work together.
How often should Development Team membership change?
B
Explanation:
It is not mandatory that the same team stay together, although it must be understood that any changes to the team will
impact how they work together.
At the fifth Sprint Retrospective, the Product Owner mentions that he is surprised about the amount of technical debt that has
built up in the system and that the product is not able to support an adequate number of users. Peter, the Product Owner, is
upset that the product will need several more Sprints to address the scalability issues in order to meet his expectations.
What factors may have led to this?
E
Explanation:
Each component within the Scrum framework serves a specific purpose and is essential to Scrums success and usage.
Scrums roles, events, artifacts, and rules are immutable and although implementing only parts of Scrum is possible, the
result is not Scrum.
A cross-functional Development Team is defined as:
A
Explanation:
The objective of the Sprint is to produce a shippable Increment at the end of each Sprint so that the team can effectively
inspect and adapt accordingly.
During Sprint Planning, the Definition of Done will help the Development Team forecast the amount of work, selected from
the Product Backlog, deemed feasible to make done by the end of the Sprint.
Which two items best describes what done means? (Choose two.)
C D
Explanation:
When a Product Backlog item or an Increment is described as Done, everyone must understand what Done means.
Although this may vary significantly per Scrum Team, members must have a shared understanding of what it means for work
to be complete, to ensure transparency. This is the Definition of Done for the Scrum Team and is used to assess when work
is complete on the product Increment. The purpose of each Sprint is to deliver Increments of potentially releasable
functionality that adhere to the Scrum Teams current Definition of Done.
