  • A Scrum Team thought it a good practice to clearly define a checklist of items that must be completed before calling a story "completed". What artifact are they likely to use for this? It must be the definition of done. Definition of Done is a well understood and clearly documented definition of items that must be established to mark a stiry (or iteration or project) to be done. 
  • A Scrum Team selects a Product Backlog Item (PBI) for the Sprint Backlog. What must the Development Team do to finish the Product Backlog Item it selects? As much as requiered to satisfy the Definition of Done. The DOD is guiding in what needs to be done before a Backlog Item is finished.
  • In the past 8 Sprints, the Scrum Team has completed 85 story points worth of work altogether. The Scrum Team has been asked to start working on a new project which is estimated at 64 story points. How many Sprints would be needed to complete this project? A. 5 sprints B. 7 sprints C. 8 sprints D. 10 sprints 7 Sprints:  The Velocity of the team is 85/8=10.625. The number of Sprints required to complete the projects is 64 Velocity (64/10.625=6,024), which works out to be sligthly above 6. Hence 7 is the most reasonable answer, since we should never round these estimates down.
  • A customer requests a report that summarizes functionality added and defects found and fixed, right at the end of a Sprint. Who can best prepare this report? A. The Product Owner B. The Scrum Master C. The Development Team D. This type of report should not be prepared Not the Developement Team. They should keep on working. The right answer is the Scrum Master! He should indeed get the impediments of the Developement Team out of the way and is thus the best position to write this report
  • Collaboration is the most important parameter for the success of a Scrum Team. What term best describes this type of interaction? A. Distributed team working B. Information radiator sharing C. Osmotic communication B is wrong: An Information Radiator is a device that shows you relevant, up-to-date information. An Osmotic communication is correct! Having Team members co-located in a single room is not just about making conversations easier, but also about osmotic communications, where people can gain useful information by overhearing and help each other as needed. 
  • Scrum Team failed to meet the Sprint objectives. One of the key members of the Development Team fell ill and was away for 2 days right at the beginning of the 4-week Sprint. What is the most likely reason that the Team did not meet the Sprint objectives? It is not the skill issue. Because the Developement Team could have planned to learn the necessary skills.  So it is the planning. Not planned efffectively. A 2 day absence should not lead to not meeting Sprint Objectives, especially not if that was at the beginning of the Sprint
  • The Product Owner is going on a three-week vacation. The Team should be closing the current Sprint and starting a new Sprint at the end of the first week of the Product Owner’s vacation. What is the best way to continue the Scrum rituals in this situation? Ina well planned Sprint the Scrum Master can take over from the Product Owner for a little while. If the Product Backlof Items are ordered well, it should be self-evident what should be done next. If necessary, the Scrum Master can take over this task.  Mh Interesting. So the idea is that it flows by it self? Mor or less ? 
  • A Scrum Team works on a project in 2-week Sprints. During the Sprint Planning meeting of the fifteenth Sprint, the Scrum Master says: "We have seen from the last 12 Sprints that we cannot deliver potentially shippable increments in 2 weeks. Let's increase the duration for Sprint 16." Should the duration be increased? It was my first option. I thought that the Scrum Master does not interfere at all. Badly thought.  The Scrum Master gives a valid argument, based on a good amount of earlier work, that the Sprint duration should be changed It is the about the argument and not about the roles. What works is important. 
  • What does the W stand for in the MoSCoW prioritization framework? Correct. MoSCoW: Must, Should, Could and Won't.
