QuestionQ347

Delivery

A Scrum team is working on a high-priority project with a tight deadline. To save time and lower overhead, the Product Owner proposes cancelling the regular Sprint Reviews and replacing them with a review of each release, following the release plan.

What should the Scrum Master do?

  • A Review the release plan with the product owner and invite the stakeholders to a series of release reviews.
  • B Review the metrics and the process to determine where the overhead could be further reduced to speed up delivery.
  • C Explain to the product owner why the sprint reviews are now replaced by release reviews as inspect and adapt is a key principle in Scrum.
  • D Explain to the product owner that getting feedback early and often from stakeholders is important so necessary changes can be made quickly.
Explanation

Sprint Reviews enable the Scrum Team and stakeholders to inspect the Sprint outcome, discuss changes in the environment, and adapt the Product Backlog and subsequent work. Obtaining stakeholder feedback early and frequently allows necessary changes to be made promptly rather than waiting until a release review.
