A Scrum Master is essentially the same thing as a traditional PM (Project Manager).
Answer(s): B
The correct answer is B, because a Scrum Master is not the same thing as a traditional PM (Project Manager). The Scrum Guide states that "the Scrum Master is responsible for promoting and supporting Scrum as defined in the Scrum Guide. Scrum Masters do this by helping everyone understand Scrum theory, practices, rules, and values." Therefore, a Scrum Master is not a manager, but a servant-leader and a coach for the Scrum Team and the organization.
A Product Owner wants advice from the Scrum Master about estimating work in Scrum. Which of these is the guideline that a Scrum Master should give?
The correct answer is B, because the guideline that a Scrum Master should give is that estimates are made by the Development Team. The Scrum Guide states that "the number of items selected from the Product Backlog for the Sprint is solely up to the Development Team. Only the Development Team can assess what it can accomplish over the upcoming Sprint." Therefore, the Development Team should estimate the work in Scrum, using any method or unit they prefer.
What is the time-box for the Sprint Planning meeting?
The correct answer is B, because the time-box for the Sprint Planning meeting is 8 hours for a monthly Sprint. The Scrum Guide states that "Sprint Planning is time-boxed to a maximum of eight hours for a one-month Sprint. For shorter Sprints, the event is usually shorter."
Which Scrum Value is affected by a lack of trust in the Scrum Team?
