A Development Team selects a set of Product Backlog items for a Sprint Backlog with the intent to get the selected items Done by the end of the Sprint. Which three phrases best describe the purpose of a definition of Done? (Choose three.)
AIt controls whether the developers have performed their tasks.
BIt provides a template for elements that need to be included in the technical documentation.
CIt creates transparency over the work inspected at the Sprint Review.
DIt trucks the percent completeness of a Product Backlog item.
EIt guides the Development Team is creating a forecast at the Sprint Planning.
FIt defines what it takes for an Increment to be ready for release.
A Scrum Master is essentially the same thing as a traditional PM (Project Manager).
ATrue
BFalse
What is the key concern when multiple Development Teams are working from the same Product Backlog?
AMinimizing dependencies between teams.
BClear definition of requirements.
CMeeting original scope projections.
DMaking sure there's enough work for everyone on every team.
EMaximizing velocity.
A properly functioning Scrum Team will have at least one Release Sprint and may well have several.
ATrue
BFalse
Marian is the Product Owner envisioning a project for a new release of her product. She made a projection of a release date based upon a sustained velocity of 17 completed units of work per Sprint. Over the first 3 Sprints, the average velocity was 13 for work that the Development Team estimated as 90% done. The
Development Teams, feeling the need to meet the plan, figured that a velocity of 17 was within their reach.
A good way to continue is:
AThe Development Team makes sure that all of the selected scope per Sprint is as ג€Doneג€ as possible. The undone work is estimated and added to the Sprint Backlog of the next Sprint, so it doesn't mess up the Product Backlog.
BAdd enough people to the Development Team for the deadline to be made.
CThe opportunity to inspect and adapt is lost. Opaqueness has replaced transparency. Predictability has dropped below zero. The produced software is not usable. As the rules of Scrum have not been respected, it is the Scrum Master's duty to assess whether repair is possible, or a restart with a more reliable team. If not, the Scrum Master should cancel the project.
DThe Development Team should remind Marian to find funding for enough Release Sprints in which the remaining work can be done.
