Question 1 of 30

When might a Sprint be cancelled?

(choose the be st answe r)

A. When it becomes clear that not everything will be finished by the end of the
Sprint.

B. When the Sprint Goal becomes obsolete.

C. When the Developers feel that the work is too hard.

D. When the sales department has an important new opportunity.

Fe e dback
A Sprint could be cancelled if the Sprint Goal becomes obsolete. Only the Product
Owner has the authority to cancel the Sprint.

Question 2 of 30

True or False : The Scrum Team must choose at least one high priority process improvement
item, identified during the Sprint Retrospective, and place it in the Sprint Backlog.

True

False

Fe e dback
An earlier version of the Scrum Guide prescribed the practice of placing one
improvement in the Sprint Backlog. This was removed in the 2020 update to the Scrum
Guide because it was felt to be too prescriptive. However, if this practice provides value
to you then you should adopt it. It is simply not prescribed anymore, but can still be
valuable.
