Changing requirements -Answer- B is correct. When a developer checks in code and it is immediately integrated with the existing code, they receive fast feedback on the quality and any interface issues with their newly released code.

D is not correct because changing requirements do not necessarily reflect on the work the developer has done because sometimes the business needs change.

XP -Answer- B is correct. The Kanban board is used to show the stations of activities - sometimes thought of as the workflow - through which an item progresses as it is being developed. A Task Board is commonly used in Scrum to show the various states of the item (To Do, In Progress, Done). FA-1.2.1 #9 You are reviewing the following story with the business and product owners: As a dog owner, I want to register my dog online, so I can quickly complete this legal requirement of dog ownership.

The 3C Concept -Answer- C is correct. This is an INVEST item (T = Testable) that is not present. B also refers to an INVEST property, but there is value delivered by the story as is stated in the story. A and D do not address INVEST FA-1.2.2 #10 Why is it important for a team to implement only a few improvements in an iteration? a. If the team tries to implement too many improvements, they may feel defeated and lose motivation b. If the team tries to implement too many improvements it may disrupt their ability to produce at a sustained pace c. If the team tries to implement too many improvements it may set a management expectation of radical change with each iteration d. If the team tries to implement too many improvements they may lose sight of the definition of "done" -Answer- B is correct. Trying to make too many changes may result in disruption of the sustained pace they are trying to achieve. FA-1.2.3 #11 In a retrospective meeting, who should provide input into the testing activities on the project? a. Only the developers b. Only the testers c. Everyone but the testers d. Everyone on the team -Answer- D is correct. Everyone on the team may have insights into possible areas of improvement for the testing and non-testing aspects of the project.
