#3. Several Sprints into a project, the Product Owner tells the Scrum master that a key stakeholder just started using the product. The stakeholder is unhappy with the slow performance. What are two good options for the Scrum Master?

Select all that apply:

A. Encourage the Product Owner to put quality specifications on the Product Backlog and express the stakeholder’s concern to the Developers.

This is a good option because the Product Owner is responsible for the Product Backlog, which includes the quality of the product. By putting quality specifications on the Product Backlog, the Product Owner can ensure that the Developers are aware of the quality expectations. The Scrum Master can facilitate this communication between the Product Owner and the Developers.

C. Coach the Product Owner on how to talk with the Developers about this concern.

This is also a good option because the Scrum Master’s role includes coaching the Product Owner and the Developers. By coaching the Product Owner on how to effectively communicate the stakeholder’s concern to the Developers, the Scrum Master can help ensure that the issue is addressed in a constructive manner.

Why not the other options?

B. Bring the concern to the testers to improve how the Product is verified.

While testers play a crucial role in ensuring product quality, it’s not the Scrum Master’s role to directly bring concerns to them. The Product Owner should communicate the quality expectations, which can then be incorporated into the testing process.

D. Wait to bring this up until the Sprint Retrospective.

While the Sprint Retrospective is a good time to discuss issues and improvements, waiting until then to address a significant concern about product quality could delay necessary changes and further disappoint the stakeholder.

E. Explain to the Product Owner that it is up to the Developers to decide on acceptable quality standards.

While Developers have a significant role in maintaining quality, it’s not solely their decision to set quality standards. The Product Owner, in consultation with stakeholders, should define the quality expectations for the product.

#8. A Development Team is required to deliver a done Increment by the end of a Sprint. Select two statements that explain what “Done” means.

Select all that apply:

No work left from the definition of “Done”: “Done” means that the increment meets the criteria outlined in the team’s Definition of Done. This includes all quality measures, testing, coding standards, documentation, and other work required to consider the increment ready for use. The Definition of Done ensures that the product increment is fully complete and of high quality.

All work to create software that is ready to be released to end users: “Done” means that the increment is in a state where it could be released to users or customers if the Product Owner decides to do so. This implies that no additional work, such as testing or integration, is needed for the increment to be considered ready for release.

#36. What is the key concern when multiple Development Teams are working from the same Product Backlog?

The key concern when multiple Development Teams are working from the same Product Backlog is minimizing dependencies between teams. This ensures that the teams can work as independently as possible, without being blocked by the progress or deliverables of other teams.

Next

#37. Who determines how work is performed during the Sprint?

In agile software development, the development team is responsible for determining how work is performed during a sprint. The development team is self-organizing, which means they have the autonomy to decide on the best tools, techniques, and processes to use. They also determine how to incorporate feedback from stakeholders into their work.

#39. A new developer is having continuing conflicts with existing Development Team members and creating a hostile environment. If necessary, who is responsible for removing the team member?

Next

#40. Who can abnormally terminate a Sprint?

In Scrum, only the Product Owner has the authority to abnormally terminate a Sprint.

A Sprint would typically be canceled if the Sprint Goal becomes obsolete or if there is a significant change in priorities that makes the current work irrelevant. For instance, if the market conditions shift, or new urgent requirements emerge that render the Sprint work unnecessary, the Product Owner can decide to cancel it.

In the Scrum framework, the Product Owner (PO) has the authority to cancel a sprint. The PO may cancel a sprint if the sprint goal becomes obsolete, or if the sprint goal and plan aren’t adding value to the product.

The sprint goal may become obsolete due to changes in business objectives.

#65. A properly functioning Scrum Team will have at least one Release Sprint and may well have several

The statement is False. In a standard Scrum framework, there is not an explicit requirement for a Release Sprint. The Scrum framework involves a series of iterations, or ‘Sprints’, that are typically two to four weeks in length. The objective of each Sprint is to produce a potentially shippable increment of product. While a Scrum team may choose to plan for a Release Sprint or hardening Sprint, it isn’t a mandatory aspect, and many teams release product increments at the end of each Sprint.
