As the Sprint Planning meeting progresses, the Development Team sees that the workload is greater than they can handle.
Which two are valid actions? (Choose two.)

  1. Recruit additional Development Team members before the work can begin.
  2. The Development Team ensures that the Product Owner is aware, starts the Sprint, and monitors progress.
  3. Cancel the Sprint.
  4. Remove or change selected Product Backlog items.
  5. The Development Team works overtime during this Sprint.

Answer(s): B,D

Explanation:

The correct answers are B and D, because 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 can remove or change selected Product Backlog items in agreement with the Product Owner if they see that the workload is greater than they can handle. The Development Team should also ensure that the Product Owner is aware of the situation, start the Sprint, and monitor progress.



Currently, your Development Teams are organized to address a single layer only (for example, front end, middle tier, back end, and interfaces).
What are three things to consider when deciding to move away from such component teams toward feature teams? (Choose three.)

  1. You cannot do Scrum without feature teams.
  2. Productivity may suffer when making this kind of move.
  3. Getting support from the business side first helps.
  4. Feature teams have less communication overhead.
  5. With feature teams, it is easier to calculate the productivity per team.

Answer(s): B,C,D

Explanation:

The correct answers are B, C, and D, because moving away from component teams toward feature teams may involve some challenges and trade-offs. Productivity may suffer when making this kind of move, as teams need to learn new skills, coordinate with other teams, and deal with legacy code. Getting support from the business side first helps, as they can provide the vision, value, and feedback for the features. Feature teams have less communication overhead, as they can deliver end-to-end functionality without depending on other teams.

During a Sprint, when is new work or further decomposition of work added to the Sprint Backlog?

  1. When the Product Owner identifies new work.
  2. As soon as possible after they are identified.
  3. When the Scrum Master has time to enter them.
  4. During the Daily Scrum after the Development Team approves them.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

The correct answer is B, because the Scrum Guide states that "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." Therefore, new work or further decomposition of work can be added to the Sprint Backlog as soon as possible after they are identified by the Development Team.



What it the main reason for the Scrum Master to be at the Daily Scrum?

  1. To gather status and progress information to report to management.
  2. To write down any changes to the Sprint Backlog, including adding new items, and tracking progress on the burn-down.
  3. He or she does not have to be there; he or she only has to ensure the Development Team has a Daily Scrum.
  4. To make sure every team member answers the three questions.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The correct answer is C, because the Scrum Guide states that "the Scrum Master ensures that the Development Team has the meeting, but the Development Team is responsible for conducting the Daily Scrum. The Scrum Master teaches the Development Team to keep the Daily Scrum within the 15-minute time-box." Therefore, the main reason for the Scrum Master to be at the Daily Scrum is to ensure that it happens, but he or she does not have to be there.
