Select two ways in which Scrum uses time-boxing to promote self-organization? (Choose two.)

  1. Time-boxes ensures that the Development Team commits to completing the items in the Sprint Backlog by the end of the Sprint.
  2. Time-boxes encourage the ones closest to the problem make the best possible decisions within the time-frame given the current situation.
  3. Time-boxes can help teams plan how many additional Sprints is needed for User Acceptance testing.
  4. Time-boxes helps everybody concentrate on the same problem at the same time.

Answer(s): B,D

Explanation:

Time-boxes help everyone focus on the work of the Sprint and personally commit to achieving the goals of the Scrum Team.



Your organization requires all Increments to pass user acceptance testing (UAT) before it is allowed to be released to production.

Is it a good idea to postpone UAT until the end of the project to prevent the Development Team from being disrupted during the Sprints?

  1. No, because the state of the Product Increment won’t be transparent and the feedback loop would be too long.
  2. It depends on the team’s Definition of Done.
  3. Yes, because the Development Team is a self-organizing team and should not be disrupted during development.
  4. Yes, because UAT is done in a hardening Sprint before the release Sprint.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

The purpose of each Sprint is to deliver Increments of potentially releasable functionality that adhere to the Scrum Team’s current definition of “Done”. At the end of a Sprint, the new Increment must be “Done”, which means it must be in useable condition and meet the Scrum Team’s definition of“Done”. An increment is a body of inspectable, done work that supports empiricism at the end of the Sprint. If UAT is a part of the team or organizational standard, then any delay in this activity will reduce transparency and increase risk.



During the Sprint Review, one of the stakeholders announces that due to recent market changes, there is risk that funding might be reduced for the project. This triggers tensions to rise and arguments to break out between members.As a Scrum Master, what would be the best two actions to take? (Choose two.)

  1. Defend the original budget and request the stakeholders to adhere to the original agreed funding for the product.
  2. Encourage the stakeholders and Product Owner to focus on delivering the highest value items for the next Sprint.
  3. Be objective and request for a short break for people to calm down.
  4. Avoid getting involved as it is the Product Owner’s responsibility to manage stakeholder expectations.
  5. Inform everyone that the team needs to stay busy until the information is formally announced.

Answer(s): B,C

Explanation:

The Scrum Master is responsible for promoting and supporting Scrum by helping everyone embody the values of commitment, courage, focus, openness and respect.



The director of engineering in your organization always stresses the importance of meeting deadlines in order for the engineering department to be seen as a reliable source for the product management department. The director has calculated that the team’s velocity needs to increase an additional 15% to meet the commitment he made to management for the release date of the product.
He asks Steven, the team’s Scrum Master, to increase his team’s velocity. Which would be the best two responses for Steven to take? (Choose two.)

  1. He explains how a team uses the velocity of a Sprint primarily to forecast work for the next Sprint, not to perfectly predict future productivity. He refers the director to the Product Owner for all information concerning the progress of development.
  2. He informs the director of organizational impediments he is aware of that prevent the team from being more productive. He suggests collaborating with him on how to remove these impediments.
  3. He educates his director how it is part of a team’s self-organization to improve velocity. He invites the director to the next Sprint Retrospective to brainstorm on how they can improve.
  4. He helps the director understand that it typically takes a few Sprints for a team to gradually increase the velocity up to the level expected. Meanwhile he presents this to the team as a challenge and a company goal, leaving it however up to them to figure out exactly how to achieve this.
  5. He tells the director that this is not his responsibility in Scrum. He tells the director to work with the Product Owner to check whether the estimates on the Product Backlog are being respected during implementation.

Answer(s): A,B

Explanation:

The Scrum Master serves the organization by helping employees and stakeholders understand and enact Scrum and empirical product development and causing change that increases the productivity of the Scrum Team.
