1.Steven is a Scrum Master of a Scrum team that is new to Scrum. Halfway through the Sprint, the Product Owner mentions to Steven that he is concerned the Developers will not be able to complete the entire Sprint Backlog by the end of the Sprint. What should Steven do in this situation? (Choose the best answer) *

1 point

A) Coach the Product Owner that with complex software development, you cannot promise the entire scope that was forecast during Sprint Planning. As more is learned during the Sprint, work may emerge that affects the Sprint Backlog.

B) Advise the Product Owner that the Developers own the Sprint Backlog and it is up to them to meet their commitments. No one tells the Developers how to turn the Product Backlog into Increments of potentially releasable functionality.

C) Add more Developers to the Scrum team to meet the Product Owner’s expectations.

D) Motivate the Developers to meet their commitment to the Product Owner.

2. The Product Owner’s primary concern is the flow of value reflected in the ordering of the Product Backlog. *

(Choose the best two answers) *

1 point

A) Reject the decision. The long-term maintainability of the product will be negatively impacted by modifying the Definition of Done.

B) Ask the Developers and the Product Owner what problem they are trying to solve by altering the Definition of Done and removing the regression testing from it. Ask coaching questions like "in what ways will this decision impact transparency and quality?"

The product is very important to both the end-users and the organization. Of the choices raised by future team members, what would Steven encourage? (Choose the best answer) *

1 point

A) Each Scrum team delivers Increments in its own code branch. After UAT is performed at the Sprint Review, the code branch is isolated until enough Increments are considered acceptable. All code branches will then be merged during the release phase.
