Value optimizer Go-between development team and customers. Requirements engineer Team manager 56 / 80 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. Add enough people to the Development Team for the deadline to be made. The 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. The Development Team should remind Marian to find funding for enough Release Sprints in which the remaining work can be done. The Development Team makes sure that all of the selected scope per Sprint is as “Done” 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. 57 / 80 You are the new Scrum Master at a company currently doing RUP in three month iterations.

At least one representative from each major software engineering discipline (like QA, Dev, UX). One Lead Developer and no more than 8 other members. 62 / 80 A new developer is having continuing conflicts with existing Development Team members and creating the hostile environment. If necessary, who is responsible for removing the team member? The Product Owner is responsible, because he/she controls the return on investment (ROI). The Development Team is responsible, and may need help from the Scrum Master. The Scrum Manager is responsible, because he/she removes Impediments.

A decomposition of all Product Backlog items into tasks for future Sprint Back log lists An automated test suite to verify functionality delivered in previous iterations. UML diagrams that describe how to deliver functionality in future iterations. A new user interface design for functionality delivered in previous iterations. Additional features in a usable state that complement those delivered in previous iterations 64 / 80 Which of the following is not a Scrum artifact?

Tasks Tests Use Cases 67 / 80 The Sprint planning meeting is comprised of how many sections? 1 2 3 4 68 / 80 When should a Sprint Goal be created? It should have been created in the previous Sprint during Product Backlog refinement. A Sprint Goal is not mandatory in Scrum. It must be established before Sprint Planning in order to begin planning. At any time during the Sprint. During Sprint Planning. 69 / 80 Who should make sure everyone on the Development Team does his or her tasks for the Sprint? The Development Team The Project Manager The Product Owner Product Owner, Scrum Master and Development Team The Scrum Master 70 / 80 Which statement best describes Scrum? framework within which complex products in complex environments are developed.

Have the Development Team establish a Definition of “Done” that is actually possible to achieve given current circumstances. A and E A, B and E A and C B, C and D 76 / 80 Who owns the Sprint Backlog? The Development Team The Scrum Master The Scrum Team. The Product Owner. 77 / 80 In accordance with Scrum theory, how should a group of 100 people be divided into multiple Development Teams? Check with the allocation department to see who has worked together before and make these the first teams. It doesn’t really matter because you can rotate the teams every Sprint to spread knowledge. Understanding the product, the product vision and the rules of the Scrum framework, the group divides itself into teams. Create a matrix of skills, seniority, and level of experience to assign people to teams. 78 / 80 How is management external to the Scrum Team involved in the Daily Scrum? The Development Team self-manages and is the only management required at the Daily Scrum. The Product Owner represents their opinions. Management gives an update at the start of each Daily Scrum.
