The Scrum Master helps everyone change these interactions to maximize the value created by the Scrum Team.
NEW QUESTION 45
During the Sprint Retrospective, the team is discussing the quality issues that prevented the team from delivering a releasable Increment at the end of the Sprint. The Development Team does, however, mention that they were able to achieve a high velocity.
What are the best two responses for Steven, their Scrum Master, to take? (Choose two.)
- A. Facilitate a discussion on how to improve the quality to a level high enough for the Increment to be releasable, even if the measured velocity drops in the next Sprint.
- B. Stress the value of working software over measured velocity.
- C. Agree and acknowledge the Development Team's hard work, so they will be motivated to do even more in the next Sprint.
- D. Acknowledge the hard work but remind the Development Team that they need to improve in order to do even more in the next Sprint.
Answer: A,B
Explanation:
Scrum employs an iterative, incremental approach to optimize predictability and control risk. The primary objective of a Sprint (iteration) is to produce a potentially shippable product Increment. Having an Increment will allow the Scrum Team to know the right thing to do in the upcoming Sprint. Having a velocity is important but working software is the primary measure of progress.
NEW QUESTION 46
Steven is a Scrum Master of a Development Team that has members working in different cities and time zones. Organizing the Scrum events is time consuming and requires a lot of effort to set up and run. The Development Team proposes to only hold the Daily Scrum on Mondays.
Which two responses would be most appropriate from Steven? (Choose two.)
- A. Coach the team on why having a Daily Scrum every day is an important opportunity to update the Sprint plan and how it helps the team self-organize work toward achieving the Sprint Goal.

- D. Help the Development Team understand that lowering the frequency of communication will only increase the feeling of disconnect between the team members.

And if needed the Scrum Master will coach the team to ensure the decisions stay within the boundaries of the Scrum framework.
NEW QUESTION 47
Which three statements best describe the purpose of having a Definition of Done? (Choose three.)

- F. It creates transparency and provides a common understanding of the 'done' state of the Increment at the Sprint Review.
Answer: A,B,F
Explanation:
When a Product Backlog item or an Increment is described as 'Done', everyone must understand what 'Done' means. Scrum Team members must have a shared understanding of what it means for work to be complete, to ensure transparency and is used to assess when work is complete on the product Increment. This Definition of Done provides the team guidance on what it takes to make the increment shippable.

NEW QUESTION 59
A Scrum Team has been working on a product for several iterations and has an average velocity of 55 units of
'done' work per Sprint. A second team will be added to work on the same product.
What might be the impact on the original team?
- A. Their velocity is likely to rise and be more than 55.
- B. Their velocity is likely not affected and will remain at 55.
- C. Their velocity is likely to drop and be less than 55.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Similar to membership changes within a single Scrum Team, adding or removing additional Scrum Teams working on the same product will impact productivity in the short term. Adding additional teams often go through recognizable stages as they change from being a collection of strangers to a united group with common goals. Bruce Tuckman's Forming, Storming, Norming, and Performing model describes these stages.
NEW QUESTION 60
Paul is a Product Owner for multiple products. Each product is allocated a dedicated Scrum Team and a set budget. Based on the average velocity of a previous product release, Paul had estimated a new product to take
9 Sprints to complete. The average velocity of the previous product release was 50 completed units of work per Sprint. Over the first 3 Sprints, the Development Team reported an average velocity of 40 completed units per Sprint, while not fully completing the required integration tests. The Development Team estimates that integration testing would require additional effort to make the increments shippable. The Development Team is unsure if the required velocity is achievable.
What is the most effective way to recover?
- A. In the next Sprints, the Development Team strives to make the selected work as close to 'done' as possible and at the minimum 90% completed. Any undone work is divided into new Product Backlog Items that will be deferred to the last Sprint in order to maintain stable velocity.
- B. The Development Team informs Paul that the progress he has perceived to date is not correct. The Increment is not releasable. They give Paul their estimate of the effort it would take to get the previous work
'done', and suggest doing that work first before proceeding with new features. The team also re-estimates the effort to make the remaining Product Backlog items 'done', including all integration effort. In the end, it is Paul's call to continue the project or to cancel. - C. The Scrum Master will manage the Sprint Backlog and assign work to the Development Team members to ensure maximum utilization of each member. He/she will keep track of unused resources so that it does not impact the budget. Unused budget can be allocated for additional Sprints if needed.
- D. The Scrum Master sets the open work aside to be performed in one or more release Sprints. They remind Paul to find funding for enough Release Sprints in which this remaining work can be done. Up to one release Sprint per three development Sprints may be required. It is Paul's role to inform users and stakeholders of the impact on the release date.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Scrum is founded on empirical process control and asserts that knowledge comes from experience and making decisions based on what is known. Scrum employs an iterative, incremental approach to optimize predictability and control risk. At the end of every Sprint, an increment of 'done' work must be available in order to inspect and adapt accordingly.
NEW QUESTION 61
What must the Development Team do during the first Sprint?
- A. Only design and develop the architecture and infrastructure.
- B. Analyze and estimate the requirements for the subsequent Sprints.
- C. Create a potentially shippable product Increment that includes at least one piece of functionality.
- D. Create a project plan in order to map functional development to Sprint dates.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Sprints promote iterative and incremental development.
