2/26/2020 Finished.
Feedback
The Product Owner is the sole person responsible for managing the Product Backlog, which includes that the
Product Backlog is visible, transparent, and clear to all, and shows what the Scrum Team will work on next.
Question 2 of 30
The Development Team should not be interrupted during the Sprint. The Sprint Goal should remain
intact. These are conditions that foster creativity, quality and productivity.
(Which one the following answers is FALSE?)
Correct answer: C)
You chose: C)
Note: This question displayed answer options in random order when taking this Test.
A) The Product Owner can help clarify or optimize the Sprint when asked by the Development
Team.
B) The Development Team may work with the Product Owner to remove or add work if it finds it
has more or less capacity than it expected.
C) The Sprint Backlog is fully formulated in the Sprint Planning meeting and does not change
during the Sprint.
D) As a decomposition of the selected Product Backlog Items, the Sprint Backlog changes and
may grow as the work emerges.
Feedback
The Sprint Backlog makes visible all of the work that the Development Team identifies as necessary to meet the
Sprint Goal. The Development Team modifies the Sprint Backlog throughout the Sprint, and the Sprint Backlog
emerges during the Sprint.
Question 3 of 30
What is the recommended size for a Development Team (within the Scrum Team)?
(choose the best answer)
Correct answer: D)
You chose: D)
Note: This question displayed answer options in random order when taking this Test.

2/26/2020 Finished.
D) 3 to 9
Feedback
Optimal Development Team size is small enough to remain nimble and large enough to complete significant
work. Fewer than three Development Team members decreases interaction and results in smaller productivity
gains. More than nine members simply requires too much coordination.
Question 4 of 30
When is a Sprint over?
(choose the best answer)
Correct answer: C)
You chose: C)
Note: This question displayed answer options in random order when taking this Test.
A) When all the tasks are completed.

E) Lead the discussions of the Development Team.
Feedback
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. The Scrum Master enforces the rule that only Development Team
members participate in the Daily Scrum.

2/26/2020 Finished.
Feedback
1. The Daily Scrum is for the Development Team and attended by the Development Team. It should
not be used by external stakeholders to check progress.
2. During Sprint Planning the Scrum Team should be crafting the Sprint Goal based on the set of
Product Backlog items selected for the sprint. The Development Team identifies the necessary work
to meet the Sprint Goal.
3. Scrum Development Team members don’t have titles, and no sub-teams; such as, testing,
architecture, or operations are recognized. Accountability belongs with the Development Team as a
whole, regardless of whether team members have specialized skills.
Question 14 of 30
True or False: When multiple teams work together on the same product, each team should
maintain a separate Product Backlog.
Correct answer: B)
You chose: B)
A) True
B) False

employ various processes and techniques.

(choose the best answer)

You chose: A)
Note: This question displayed answer options in random order when taking this Test.

functionality.
B) Complete the project as estimated when the date and cost are committed to the Product
Owner.

Increment of "Done" product at the end of each Sprint. Development Teams are cross-functional, with all of the
skills as a team necessary to create a product Increment.

2/26/2020 Finished.
Feedback
Only the people doing the work described on the Sprint Backlog need to inspect and adapt at the Daily Scrum. If
the Scrum Master or Product Owner is also on the Development Team, they will need to be at the Daily Scrum.
Otherwise, the Scrum Master simply has to make sure the Development Team knows how to conduct a Daily
Scrum and does so.

What should the Development Team do?
(choose the best answer)

potentially releasable.

Correct answer: A)
You chose: A)
A) True

releasable product Increment is created.
