for the whole team.
13. Which of the following is the main responsibility of the Product Owner?
A. Directing the Development Team
B. Managing the Development Team
C. Managing the project
D. Maintaining the Product Backlog
The main responsibility of the Product Owner is maximizing the value of the project by creating, clearing, and
ordering the Product Backlog
The goal of the Development Team in all Sprints (including the first one) is to deliver Increments of potentially
releasable functionalities of the final product of the project. We don’t plan the whole project at the beginning,
just enough for starting the immediate work. This planning is done when we are preparing and maintaining the
Product Backlog and Sprint Backlogs.
When there are extreme changes in the Product Backlog, or some other thing happens and the Product Owner
realizes that it makes no sense to finish the Sprint as defined in the Sprint Backlog, he/she has the authority to
cancel the Sprint. Another Sprint will be started immediately with a new Sprint Planning.

19. Which of the following is an opportunity to inspect and adapt (multiple answers)?
A. Scrum Planning
B. Scrum Review
C. Scrum Retrospective
D. Daily Scrum
Every event in Scrum, besides the Sprint which is a container for the other events, is an opportunity to inspect and
adapt.

B. Refer the representative to the Scrum Master to discuss it
C. Refuse it, because they are in the middle of the Sprint
D. Accept it only if they are willing to ask for it formally
It is only the responsibility and authority of the Product Owner to add or remove items to the Product Backlog.
The Product Owner will decide when to deliver the item by ordering the Product Backlog.
The time-box set for Sprints should not be longer than one month, and should be selected considering different
factors such as the risk and delivery time.
Scrum Master does not manage the Scrum Team or even the Development Team, but manages the Scrum
process.
Scrum is a framework best suited for projects that are subject to extreme uncertainties and changes.

29. The Development Team should have all the skills and competencies required to…
A. Turn Sprint Backlogs into Increments of potentially releasable product.
B. Deliver Sprint Backlog items to QA/QC department
C. Complete the project in time and within budget
D. Plan the whole project and complete it according to the plan
The Development Team should be cross-functional, capable of completing the Sprint Backlog items based on the
definition of “Done”. Not every kind of delivery is acceptable in Scrum, it should be “potentially releasable
Increments of the final product of the project”, to help stakeholders give feedback.
The whole Product Backlog is the responsibility of the Product Owner, but estimates are only done by the
Development Team.
32. The Daily Scrums should be held at the same time and same place for the entire duration of a Sprint.
A. True
B. False
The Development Team should be small enough to remain nimble and large enough to be able to complete

36. How a Scrum Master increases the productivity of the Development Team?
A. By facilitating their decision and removing impediments
B. By preventing changes to the Sprint Backlog
C. By ensuring that Product Backlog items are ordered properly
D. By ensuring that Scrum meetings start and end at the right time
Scrum Master does not manage the Development Team; it’s the responsibility of the Development Team to
manage its own efforts. However, the Scrum Master helps them by facilitating their decisions and removing
impediments.
37. What happens to the definition of “Done” when multiple Development Teams are working on a single
project?
A. Each team defines its own “Done”, and communicates it with others so that everyone knows what it means
when a team claims that they are Done with something
B. Each team defines its own “Done”, in a way that the integration of their work results in a definition of “Done”
that is potentially releasable
C. They all use the same definition of “Done”
D. Any of the above answers, based on the nature of the project and the environment of the organization
We should always have Increments of potentially shippable product, even when multiple teams are working on a
single project. In this case, a single definition of “Done” might not be suitable for all teams, but the integration of
their definitions should result in an overall definition of “Done” that is potentially shippable.
Each Increment should be potentially releasable, but it may or may not be actually released.

45. The reason the Scrum Master is at the Daily Scrum is:
A) To make sure everyone answers the three questions in order of seniority.
B) He or she does not have to be there; he or she only has to ensure the Development Team has a Daily Scrum.

burndown.
D) So he or she knows what to report to management.
47. An organization has decided to adopt Scrum, but management wants to change the terminology to fit with
terminology already used. What will likely happen if this is done?
A) Without a new vocabulary as a reminder of the change, very little change may actually happen.
B) The organization may not understand what has changed within Scrum and the benefits
of Scrum may be lost.
C) Management may feel less anxious.
D) All answers apply.

implemented by an individual development team member.
C) Whenever a team member can accommodate more work.
D) During the Daily Scrum.
However, management external to the Scrum team is incredibly important in setting the vision and strategy to

A) 3 plus or minus 1
B) 6 plus or minus 3
C) 9 plus or minus 2
D) 15 plus or minus 3
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.
62. How much work must a Development Team do to a Product Backlog item it selects for a Sprint?
A) As much as it has told the Product Owner will be done for every Product Backlog item it selects in
conformance with the definition of done.
