What are TWO good ways to handle security concerns? ✔✔* Add them to the Definition of
Done.
* Add them to the Product Backlog.
What's the role of a Product Owner during Sprint Retrospectives? ✔✔Participating as a Scrum
Team member
All three roles (the Scrum Team) participate in the Sprint Retrospective, and they work together
to see how they can improve the way they work in the next Sprint.
Which of the following best describes the Sprint Review meeting? ✔✔It's an inspection of the
Increment to collect feedback and see what to do in the next Sprint.
"Demo" is not the best word to use here; "review" is more appropriate, because it shows that the
event is interactive, rather than just a demonstration. It also covers inspection of the team
progress and some conversations about the next Sprint, which don't fit into the "demo" category.
Which THREE statements are correct when four teams are working on a product? ✔✔* There is
only one Product Owner
* There is only one Product Backlog
* There are multiple Sprint Backlogs in each Sprint
(Note that it's not wrong to have one person as the Scrum Master for all teams, but it's not
generally correct, and there can be multiple Scrum Masters.)
The Product Owner believes that the current velocity won't be sustainable. What could be the
reason? ✔✔High technical debt
When you have technical debt, you will run into problems in the future, which will slow down
your rate of development (velocity).
True or false? Since the Product Owner is accountable for the value of the product, they have the
final say over the Definition of Done. ✔✔FALSE
Inside the team, the Definition of Done is composed or adjusted by the whole Scrum Team.
What does a burn-down chart measure? ✔✔Work remaining across time
Which of the following is needed for starting a new Sprint Planning? ✔✔None
Each Sprint Planning starts immediately after the Sprint Retrospective of the previous Sprint,
which means there's no prerequisite for Sprint Planning.
We prefer to have small and clear items at the top of the Product Backlog, but if we don't, we
still plan and start the Sprint, and we will refine the items during the Sprint. That's why we don't
want to have a "definition of ready" that works as a gate.
Who's normally involved in Product Backlog refinement? ✔✔Product Owner and Developers
Which TWO of the following are formal opportunities for inspecting and adapting? ✔✔* Daily
Scrum
* Sprint Planning
Sprint Planning, Daily Scrum, Sprint Review, and Sprint Retrospective are "formal opportunities
for inspecting and adapting", and are considered to be "feedback loops".
Which of the following is required by Scrum? ✔✔Definition of Done
(Having full-time developers is not - was the second option)
Which of the following is NOT required by Scrum? ✔✔Story Points
(Product Backlog refinement IS required)
The Developers are trying to convince the Product Owner that the Sprint should be cancelled.
What's the right response from the Scrum Master? ✔✔It's OK.
Product Owners receive input from everyone who's involved in the project when they are making
their decisions, and there's nothing wrong with "influencing" the Product Owner.
All of the following are inputs to Sprint Planning, EXCEPT: ✔✔Sprint Goal
The Sprint Goal is created during the Sprint Planning meeting, and therefore, cannot be an input
to it.
Did you notice the word "except" in the question?
Who is required to attend the Daily Scrum? ✔✔The Developers
Others "can" attend the meeting, but it's not correct to say that they "should", or "are required to"
attend. (They don't have to be there, but they can attend if they want.)
The Developers have realized that they have over-committed themselves for the Sprint. Which
TWO statements apply in this situation? ✔✔* They can review and adjust the technical work of
the items themselves.
* They can get help from the Product Owner to adjust the Sprint Backlog.
When do Developers take ownership of a Sprint Backlog item? ✔✔They don't! Developers share
ownership of the code and items.
If you "own" something (in this context), it means that you are accountable for it.
For Product Backlog items in the Sprint Backlog, a common approach in many projects is that
one or a few Developers take ownership of each item. However, this is not the case in Agile
projects: all Developers share ownership and stay accountable for everything.
Which statement is correct when Developers are in the middle of a Sprint? ✔✔The scope may be
clarified as more is learned.
Which of the following is LEAST likely to be used by a Scrum team? ✔✔WBS, Gantt Chart
WBS and Gantt Chart are mainly used in planning predictive (plan-based) projects rather than
adaptive (Agile) ones.
There's a Scrum project that is supposed to have two releases: one in the middle and the other at
the end of the project. Which of the following statements is correct about this project? ✔✔All
increments should be releasable.
All Increments must be usable (potentially releasable) to enable usable feedback, regardless of
the actual releases we may have.
Which TWO of the following can be considered real outputs of a Sprint? ✔✔* A few Done
features that are added to the previous version of the software
* An Increment of working software
Which TWO statements explain when a Product Backlog item is considered complete? ✔✔*
When everything is done based on the Definition of Done
* When no work is left for it based on the Definition of Done
Which TWO statements are correct about the Definition of Done? ✔✔* Used by the developers
to forecast how many items they can pick for the Sprint.
* Increases transparency of the Increments.
True or false? Only the Developers are allowed to compose the Definition of Done. ✔✔FALSE
Its minimums may come from the organization, and in that case, it should be respected in the
project. Inside the project, the whole Scrum Team is responsible for defining and adjusting the
Definition of Done.
Which two of the following are ways in which the Product Owner can understand the progress of
the Sprint? ✔✔* Attend the Daily Scrum
* Check the Scrum board in the project room (if any)
Which element is NOT an attribute of Product Backlog items? ✔✔Owner
Some attributes won't work, such as "owner", because the ownership of items is shared.
Each Product Backlog item has these attributes:
1- Description
2- Estimated size
3- Order (implied by the position of the item in the Product Backlog)
