It should be flexible enough to complete all the work planned for the Sprint even if some team members are on vacation

The Sprint Backlog is created at the Sprint Planning. It is prohibited to add new work into the Sprint Backlog later by the Development Team.
False
True

The Development Team modifies the Sprint Backlog throughout the Sprint, and the Sprint Backlog emerges during the Sprint. This emergence occurs as
the Development Team works through the plan and learns more about the work needed to achieve the Sprint Goal. As new work is required, the
Development Team adds it to the Sprint Backlog.

It is not normal. Development Teams deliver an Increment of product functionality every Sprint. This Increment is usable, so a Product Owner may
choose to immediately release it. So, there is nothing to prepare. Each increment contains only “Done” functionality that could be released immediately.

A Product Backlog is never complete. The earliest development of it only lays out the initially known and best-understood requirements. The Product
Backlog evolves as the product and the environment in which it will be used evolves. The Product Backlog is dynamic; it constantly changes to identify
what the product needs to be appropriate, competitive, and useful. As long as a product exists, its Product Backlog also exists.

75. Question
What are the characteristics of a Development Team? Select three most appropriate choices.
Accountability belongs to the Development Team as a whole
Having at least one test engineer in the Development Team
Scrum recognizes no titles for Development Team members
Having the Scrum Master as a part-time Developer in the Development Team
Scrum recognizes no sub-teams in the Development Team
Incorrect
Development Teams have the following characteristics:
They are self-organizing. No one (not even the Scrum Master) tells the Development Team how to turn Product Backlog into Increments of potentially
releasable functionality;
Development Teams are cross-functional, with all of the skills as a team necessary to create a product Increment;
Scrum recognizes no titles for Development Team members, regardless of the work being performed by the person;
Scrum recognizes no sub-teams in the Development Team, regardless of domains that need to be addressed like testing, architecture, operations, or
business analysis; and,
Individual Development Team members may have specialized skills and areas of focus, but accountability belongs to the Development Team as a
whole.

Question 87 of 87
87. Question
Imagine you are a Scrum Master in a small Organization that tries to adopt Scrum. There are 10 developers and the Product Owner. How can they be
divided into teams? Choose all applicable options:
2 teams of 6 and 4 people (because it is good to have a separate QA team)
3 teams of 4, 3 and 3 people (each team is cross-functional)
2 teams of 6 and 4 people (after a short meeting the developers decided this is the best option)
1 team of 10 people (because there is no reason to divide)
Incorrect
Number of people in a Development Team should be between 3 and 9. Each team should be cross-functional and self-organized.
Optimal Development Team size is small enough to remain nimble and large enough to complete significant work within a Sprint. Fewer than three
Development Team members decrease interaction and results in smaller productivity gains. Having more than nine members requires too much
coordination. The Product Owner and Scrum Master roles are not included in this count unless they are also executing the work of the Sprint Backlog.

How does an organization know that a product built through Scrum is successful?
(choose the best answer)
Correct answer: B)
You chose: D)
Note: This question displayed answer options in random order when taking this Test.
A) By measuring that velocity has increased since the last release
B) By releasing often, and updating key performance indicators (KPIs) on value after every
release and feeding this information back into work on the Product Backlog
C) By measuring the actual time spent on development versus the time estimated for
development
D) By the Product Owner and stakeholders accepting the Increment at the Sprint Review
Feedback
Scrum Teams deliver products iteratively and incrementally, maximizing opportunities for feedback. If a product
isn't released, the opportunity to capture user and market feedback is lost.

Which description best fits the role of the Product Owner?
Correct answer: B)
You chose: C)
A) Project Manager 2.0
B) Value Maximizer
C) Requirements Collector
D) Scope Protector
E) Chief Analyst
Feedback
The Product Owner is responsible for maximizing the value of the product. How this is done will vary widely.
Question 3 of 15
True or False: A first Sprint can start before the Product Owner has a complete and exhaustive
Product Backlog in place.
Correct answer: A)
You chose: B)
A) True
B) False
Feedback
A first Sprint requires no more than a Product Owner, a team, and enough ideas to potentially complete a full
Sprint.

account.
Correct answer: B)
You chose: A)
5.9.2019 Finished.
A) True
B) False
Feedback
A Product Owner engages actively and regularly with stakeholders. However, to limit the disturbance to the
development progress and keep focus high, the stakeholders have a formal role in the process at the Sprint
Review only.
Question 5 of 15
To what extent does technical debt limit the value a Product Owner can get from a product?
(choose the best two answers)
Correct answer: A) D)
You chose: A) D)
A) Technical debt causes a greater percentage of the product's budget to be spent on

maintenance of the product.
B) Technical debt is not a Product Owner concern, because technical debt is only an issue for
the Development Team.
C) Technical debt does not influence the delivery of value.
D) The velocity at which new functionality can be created is reduced when you have technical
debt.
Question 6 of 15
It is mandatory for the Product Owner to monitor and share progress of the Product Backlog by
using which method?
Correct answer: D)
You chose: A)
A) A Product or Release burn-down chart
B) A Value burn-up chart
C) A Gantt chart
D) Any practice based on trends of work completed and upcoming work
E) A Sprint Review acceptance report
Feedback

Various practices upon trending have been used to forecast progress, like burn-downs, burn-ups, or cumulative
flows. These have proven useful, but none are mandatory and care should be taken because none can replace
the importance of empiricism. What will happen is unknown, no matter what has happened.
Question 7 of 15
What two things should be done if the Product Owner is unavailable?
Correct answer: A) C)
You chose: A) C)
A) Within the Sprint, the Development Team makes the best decisions possible to assure
progress toward the Sprint Goal, re-aligning with the Product Owner once he/she is
available again.
B) There should be a Product Owner team to allow a different person from that team to
instantly take over the role of Product Owner.
C) In a permanent state of unavailability, a new Product Owner needs to be appointed.
Development efforts without a Product Owner are not employing Scrum.
D) Development of functional requirements stops until the Product Owner is available again.

Question 9 of 15
How important is it for a Product Owner to order Product Backlog items by value points?
Correct answer: B)
You chose: B)
A) Using value points is the ultimate way for a Product Owner to predict the value that the
product will provide.
B) It is a good practice, keeping in mind that market reception is the best measure of value.
C) Calculating value points is an upfront approach that conflicts with the empiricism of Scrum,

A) Setting value on individual Product Backlog items using Value Poker

B) Devising a formula for a neutral calculation of value
C) The order of the Product Backlog
D) Validating assumptions of value through frequent releases

B) The Scrum Team, in a collaborative effort where the result is the common denominator of all
members' definitions
C) The Product Owner as he/she is responsible for the product's success
D) The Scrum Master as he/she is responsible for the Development Team's productivity
Feedback
If the definition of "done" is part of the conventions, standards or guidelines of the development organization, all
Scrum Teams must follow it as a minimum. The Development Team of the Scrum Team can complement it with
elements specific for the product or context.
If "done" for an increment is not a convention of the development organization, the Development Team of the
Scrum Team must define a definition of "done" appropriate for the product.
Question 12 of 15
What pre-conditions must be fulfilled in order to allow Sprint Planning to begin?
Correct answer: F)
You chose: E)
A) A fully refined Product Backlog
B) Formal budget approval to conduct another Sprint
C) A clear and non-negotiable Sprint Goal
D) A clear but negotiable business objective for the Sprint
E) Enough "Ready" Product Backlog to fill the Sprint
F) There are no such pre-conditions

Sprint Planning serves to plan the work to be performed in the Sprint. This plan is created by the collaborative
work of the entire Scrum Team. Sprint Planning is time-boxed to a maximum of eight hours for a one-month
Sprint. What can be achieved in this time-box may be influenced by additional practices that are however not
prescribed by Scrum.
Question 13 of 15
How can a Product Owner use time-boxed Sprints to obtain feedback from users and the market?
Correct answer: B)
You chose: B)
A) Through the assurance that a Development Team finishes all work on the Sprint Backlog.
B) Through frequent delivery of Increments of the product into the market.
C) By making sure a Sprint does not stop until all testing is done, and the work is verified by the
Product Owner.
D) At the end of each Sprint, a detailed report with all test cases and test results is available.
E) A business analyst represents the Product Owner to make decisions on his behalf during
the Sprint. This way the Product Owner can accept the work at the Sprint Review without
further involvement.
Feedback
The Product Owner manages Product Backlog against the assumption that value will be generated. This
assumption remains invalidated when not checked against users and market. When a Sprint's horizon is too
long, you increase the risk that what is being developed may no longer be desired. Sprints limit risk to one
calendar month or less of work.
Question 14 of 15
When can the Product Backlog be updated?
Correct answer: D)
You chose: D)
A) Only after a Sprint Review if agreed to by the stakeholders
B) Only during Product Backlog refinement sessions if the Product Owner is present
C) Never, unless agreed to by the change request
D) At any time when done by the Product Owner or at the Product Owner's discretion
5.9.2019 Finished.
Feedback
The Product Backlog is dynamic; it constantly changes to identify what the product needs in order to be
appropriate, competitive, and useful. Product Backlog items can be updated at any time by the Product Owner or
at the Product Owner's discretion.
Question 15 of 15
The Product Owner manages the Product Backlog. Who is accountable for estimating the effort to
complete the Product Backlog items?
Correct answer: A)
You chose: A)
A) The Development Team. As a collective, they have a complete view of the work needed to
transform Product Backlog items into Increments of product.
B) The PMO. They have all the history on projects delivered, and this enables the IT
department to make delivery commitments.
C) The Product Owner. The Product Owner is required to commit on delivery to the users and
the stakeholders.

The Development Team is responsible for all estimates. The people who will perform the work make the final
estimate.

Question 4 of 15
5.9.2019 Finished.
In order to make investment decisions, the Product Owner is likely to look at the Total Cost of
Ownership (TCO) of the product being built. What costs will a Product Owner take into account?
Correct answer: B)
You chose: C)
A) The money spent on development of the product, often a fixed cost per Sprint multiplied by
the Sprints required
B) All investments required to conceive, develop, operate and maintain the product
C) The accumulated cost over the earned value of the product
Feedback
The owner of a product is not only accountable for development and release of a product, but also the cost of
maintaining and operating the product. If a person 'owns' the product, he/she can be expected to be responsible
for the complete lifecycle of a product.
Question 5 of 15
Learning turns into 'validated learning' when assumptions and goals can be assessed through
results. What is a key way for a Product Owner to apply validated learning?
Correct answer: A)
You chose: A)
A) Release an Increment to the market to learn about the business assumptions built into the
product.
B) Accept an Increment at the Sprint review to learn about the forecast of functionality that was
developed.
C) Set the Sprint Goal before selecting Product Backlog items at Sprint Planning to learn about

Scrum users must frequently inspect Scrum artifacts and progress to detect undesirable variances. The primary
tool for the Product Owner to uphold transparency is the Product Backlog. Product Backlog is a living artifact that
is actively maintained and updated to reflect reality. At the Sprint Review, attendees collaborate on the next
things that could be done to optimize value, which is processed into an updated Product Backlog.

Question 1 of 15
It is mandatory for the Product Owner to monitor and share progress of the Product Backlog by
using which method?
Correct answer: D)
You chose: A)
A) A Product or Release burn-down chart
B) A Value burn-up chart
C) A Gantt chart
D) Any practice based on trends of work completed and upcoming work
E) A Sprint Review acceptance report
Feedback
5.9.2019 Finished.
Various practices upon trending have been used to forecast progress, like burn-downs, burn-ups, or cumulative
flows. These have proven useful, but none are mandatory and care should be taken because none can replace
the importance of empiricism. What will happen is unknown, no matter what has happened.

Question 8 of 15
What is a Product Backlog?
Correct answer: A)
You chose: A)
A) It is a living artifact of product requirements that exists and evolves as long as a product
exists.
B) It is a formally approved list of requirements to be implemented over a set period.
C) It is a detailed list of functionality from which the Development Team draws items, to be
complemented by a separate Technology Backlog managed by the Development Team.
D) It is a list of references to Use Case documents that are stored in a central repository. The
references should be viewable and clickable by anybody to enhance transparency.
Feedback
The Product Backlog is an ordered list of everything that might be needed in the product and is the single source
of requirements for any changes to be made to the product. The Product Backlog evolves as the product and the
environment in which it will be used evolves. Higher ordered Product Backlog items are usually clearer and more
detailed than lower ordered ones. As long as a product exists, its Product Backlog also exists.

Feedback
A traditional project manager is responsible for all aspects of a project; costs, resources, execution, release,
planning, capacity. Scrum is a framework for complex product development, regardless of whether the work is
organized in projects. The Product Owner is responsible for maximizing the value of the product and the work
