   Correct answer: B, D, F

   The way Scrum is understood and enacted within the organization. / Managing the process in which Scrum is applied. / Removing organizational impediments that limits the team's progress and productivity.

   Explanation

   The Scrum Master is a manager of the Scrum process, ensuring its correct implementation, removing barriers, and fostering an environment for success within the organization.

2. Question 2.An organization has just hired you as a new Scrum Master to help them transition their teams from their current traditional process to Scrum. The teams are currently structured to specialize in a single function. This is also known as component teams where a team would only address a single layer (i.e. design, frontend, backend, database, testing, etc.). You've introduced the concept of cross-functional teams where all the skills needed to produce business functionality, from end to end, are inside of a single team.What should you keep in mind when transitioning from siloed teams to cross-functional teams? (Choose two.)

   • A.It is easier to compare the performance between cross-functional teams in order to identify to which teams to assign tasks and which teams need additional coaching.
   • B.Newly formed teams will need time to stabilize before reaching their peak performance. During the initial stages of forming, performance will suffer and productivity may be low, although even then delivery of business value is still likely to increase.(correct answer)
   • C.Without feature teams, you cannot do Scrum. Postpone Scrum adoption until the teams are reorganized in feature teams.
   • D.People from the different layers and components will need time to become accustomed to working and delivering unified functionality together as one Scrum Team thus productivity may suffer.(correct answer)
   Show answer & explanationHide answer

   Correct answer: B, D

   Newly formed teams will need time to stabilize before reaching their peak performance. During the initial stages of forming, performance will suffer and productivity may be low, although even then delivery of business value is still likely to increase. / People from the different layers and components will need time to become accustomed to working and delivering unified functionality together as one Scrum Team thus productivity may suffer.

   Explanation

   Transitioning to cross-functional teams is a significant change. Productivity often dips initially as people learn new ways of collaborating and integrating across previously siloed boundaries.

3. Question 3.Paul is a Product Owner for multiple products. Each product is allocated a dedicated Scrum Team and a set budget. Based on the average velocity of a previous product release, Paul had estimated a new product to take 9 Sprints to complete. The average velocity of the previous product release was 50 completed units of work per Sprint. Over the first 3 Sprints, the Development Team reported an average velocity of 40 completed units per Sprint, while not fully completing the required integration tests. The Development Team estimates that integration testing would require additional effort to make the increments shippable. TheDevelopment Team is unsure if the required velocity is achievable.What is the most effective way to recover?

   • A.In the next Sprints, the Development Team strives to make the selected work as close to 'done' as possible and at the minimum 90% completed. Any undone work is divided into new Product Backlog Items that will be deferred to the last Sprint in order to maintain stable velocity.
   • B.The Development Team informs Paul that the progress he has perceived to date is not correct. The Increment is not releasable. They give Paul their estimate of the effort it would take to get the previous work 'done', and suggest doing that work first before proceeding with new features. The team also re-estimates the effort to make the remaining Product Backlog items 'done', including all integration effort. In the end, it is Paul's call to continue the project or to cancel.(correct answer)
   • C.The Scrum Master will manage the Sprint Backlog and assign work to the Development Team members to ensure maximum utilization of each member. He/ she will keep track of unused resources so that it does not impact the budget. Unused budget can be allocated for additional Sprints if needed.
   • D.The Scrum Master sets the open work aside to be performed in one or more release Sprints. They remind Paul to find funding for enough Release Sprints in which this remaining work can be done. Up to one release Sprint per three development Sprints may be required. It is Paul's role to inform users and stakeholders of the impact on the release date.
   Show answer & explanationHide answer

   Correct answer: B

   The Development Team informs Paul that the progress he has perceived to date is not correct. The Increment is not releasable. They give Paul their estimate of the effort it would take to get the previous work 'done', and suggest doing that work first before proceeding with new features. The team also re-estimates the effort to make the remaining Product Backlog items 'done', including all integration effort. In the end, it is Paul's call to continue the project or to cancel.

   Explanation

   Transparency is critical. The team must inform the PO that 'undone' work exists, causing a false sense of progress, and they must prioritize getting the product into a truly 'Done' state.

4. Question 4.Paul, a Product Owner of one of the Scrum Teams, has been attending the Daily Scrum. During the Daily Scrum, the Development Team members have been reporting their daily work to Paul so that he is aware of their Sprint progress and what each member is working on.What is the best action for the Scrum Master to take?

   • A.Ask Paul to stop attending the Daily Scrum.
   • B.Coach Paul and Development Team members on the purpose of the Scrum events and let them figure out what to do in this situation.(correct answer)
   • C.Allow the Paul to participate in the Daily Scrum as he is responsible for the success of the product.
   • D.Facilitate the Daily Scrums to avoid any conflicts between the Development Team members and Paul.
   Show answer & explanationHide answer

   Correct answer: B

   Coach Paul and Development Team members on the purpose of the Scrum events and let them figure out what to do in this situation.

   Explanation

   The Daily Scrum is for the Developers. If it turns into a status report to the PO, it loses its effectiveness for the team. The SM should coach everyone on the correct purpose of the event.

5. Question 5.Steven, the Scrum Master, is approached by one of the Development Team members saying that they are not completing regression tests for all of the work they are performing to the level defined in the Definition of Done. They have discussed this with the Product Owner and decided to remove regression testing from the Definition of Done.Which two actions are the most appropriate for Steven to take? (Choose two.)

   • A.Reject the decision as the long term maintainability of the product will be negatively impacted by modifying the Definition of Done.
   • B.Accept the decision as a mutual agreement has been made between the Development Team and the Product Owner.
   • C.Ask the Development Team and the Product Owner what problem they are trying to solve by altering the Definition of Done and removing regression testing from it. In what ways will this decision impact transparency and quality?(correct answer)
   • D.Ask the Development Team and the Product Owner if they are still able to produce potentially shippable product increments by altering the Definition of Done?(correct answer)
   Show answer & explanationHide answer

   Correct answer: C, D

   Ask the Development Team and the Product Owner what problem they are trying to solve by altering the Definition of Done and removing regression testing from it. In what ways will this decision impact transparency and quality? / Ask the Development Team and the Product Owner if they are still able to produce potentially shippable product increments by altering the Definition of Done?

   Explanation

   Weakening the Definition of Done affects the quality and transparency of the Increment. The SM should coach the team on the implications of this decision on the overall product health.

6. Question 6.At the end of the eighth Sprint, the internal sponsors are upset and angry with the progress of the product being built. The current state of the product is not as expected and will require additional Sprints and more budget than originally anticipated at the start of the project.What factors may have led to this? (Choose three.)

   • A.The Product Owner has not been engaging with sponsors frequently enough and has not been kept aware of the overall progress of the project.(correct answer)
   • B.The sponsors haven't been using the Sprint Reviews to actively engage, and inspect and evaluate progress.(correct answer)
   • C.The scope changes have not been tracked adequately and the change request process has not been followed properly.
   • D.The stakeholders have not been using the Daily Scrum effectively to track the Development Team's progress.
   • E.The Scrum Master has not ensured transparency.(correct answer)
   • F.The project plan proposed to the sponsors at the start of the project followed stringently.
   Show answer & explanationHide answer

   Correct answer: A, B, E

   The Product Owner has not been engaging with sponsors frequently enough and has not been kept aware of the overall progress of the project. / The sponsors haven't been using the Sprint Reviews to actively engage, and inspect and evaluate progress. / The Scrum Master has not ensured transparency.

   Explanation

   A breakdown in transparency and stakeholder engagement leads to misalignment. Regular inspection at Sprint Reviews is meant to prevent such surprises.

7. Question 7.Three Development Teams are currently building a single product and pulling work from the same Product Backlog. All three teams have identified that they will need Dan, a database specialist, to work full time in their team for the next several Sprints.What should Steven, the Scrum Master, do to solve this potential problem?

   • A.Manage the items in the Sprint Backlogs so that Dan can be utilized evenly for each team.
   • B.Assign Dan to the team with the most urgent tasks first and then move him to the next team and so on until the required support is completed.
   • C.Facilitate a discussion with all Development Teams on how they want to deal with this issue, and help them implement their preferred solution.(correct answer)
   • D.Ask Dan to work with the HR department to recruit and hire additional database specialists. In the meantime, have the Product Owner move items that do not depend on Dan to the top of the Product Backlog.
   Show answer & explanationHide answer

   Correct answer: C

   Facilitate a discussion with all Development Teams on how they want to deal with this issue, and help them implement their preferred solution.

   Explanation

   The Scrum Master facilitates self-organization. The teams are best positioned to decide how to handle a shared resource or dependency.

8. Question 8.An organization wants to apply Scrum to build a new product and has hired Steven to be the Scrum Master of three new teams that will build the first release. The organization is new to Scrum and asks Steven for advice on how to start. Which two things should Steven first advise? (Choose two.)

   • A.Each Scrum Team has its own Product Backlog with items only their team will be working on.
   • B.One Product Backlog to represent all of the known work needed to be done for the product.(correct answer)
   • C.Three Product Owners, one for each Scrum Team.
   • D.Having one Product Owner to be accountable for maximizing the flow of value throughout the development process and provide transparency on the overall progress.(correct answer)
   Show answer & explanationHide answer

   Correct answer: B, D

   One Product Backlog to represent all of the known work needed to be done for the product. / Having one Product Owner to be accountable for maximizing the flow of value throughout the development process and provide transparency on the overall progress.

   Explanation

   Regardless of the number of teams, a single product always has exactly one Product Backlog and one Product Owner to ensure a unified vision and value maximization.

9. Question 9.A Development Team has a total of six members, 4 members who work full time in the office and 2 members who work part time at home. The Development Team is complaining that it is too difficult to synchronize every day and has suggested having the Daily Scrum every other day instead.What would be three key concerns if the Daily Scrum is held less frequently? (Choose three.)

   • A.Impediments are raised and resolved more slowly.(correct answer)
   • B.Opportunities to inspect and adapt the Sprint Backlog are reduced.(correct answer)
   • C.Less information about the progress will be shared causing the Sprint plan to become inaccurate and reducing transparency over progress toward the Sprint Goal.(correct answer)
   • D.The Scrum Master loses the ability to update the burndown chart adequately.
   • E.The Product Owner cannot accurately inspect utilization of the individual team members.
   Show answer & explanationHide answer

   Correct answer: A, B, C

   Impediments are raised and resolved more slowly. / Opportunities to inspect and adapt the Sprint Backlog are reduced. / Less information about the progress will be shared causing the Sprint plan to become inaccurate and reducing transparency over progress toward the Sprint Goal.

   Explanation

   The Daily Scrum is a vital inspection and adaptation point. Reducing its frequency increases risk and decreases transparency over the team's progress.

10. Question 10.Steven is a Scrum Master asked to assist in creating five new Scrum Teams that will be working to build a highly anticipated product. He talks with them about the importance of being able to integrate their Increments by the end of their Sprints. This includes the first Sprints. 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?

    • 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.
    • B.Each Scrum Team delivers functionality at the end of each Sprint. New Product Backlog items will then be added to the next Sprint Backlog to integrate their functionality with the other teams to create a unified Increment.
    • C.All Scrum Teams agree on a mutual understanding of 'done' that defines all work necessary to deliver a potentially shippable Increment that includes all previous Increments delivered for the product.(correct answer)
    • D.Wait until enough of the infrastructure and architecture is in place before starting the first Sprints. This will increase the success of delivering integrated Increments in Sprint 1.
    Show answer & explanationHide answer

    Correct answer: C

    All Scrum Teams agree on a mutual understanding of 'done' that defines all work necessary to deliver a potentially shippable Increment that includes all previous Increments delivered for the product.

    Explanation

    For multiple teams on one product, a shared Definition of Done is essential to ensure that integrated increments are truly potentially shippable every Sprint.

11. Question 11.According to the values of Scrum, which is the best way to create Development Teams?

    • A.The Product Owner will create a skills matrix according to what is needed for the project and work with the technical leads to allocate resources to the team.
    • B.Work with the leadership team to allocate members according to skills, seniority and experience to ensure that all Development Teams are balanced fairly.
    • C.Provide boundaries and allow the developers to self-organize into Scrum Teams.(correct answer)
    Show answer & explanationHide answer

    Correct answer: C

    Provide boundaries and allow the developers to self-organize into Scrum Teams.

    Explanation

    Self-organization is a core tenet of Scrum. Giving professionals the autonomy to form their own teams within set boundaries leads to higher ownership and performance.

12. Question 12.When multiple Scrum Teams are working from the same Product Backlog, also known as scaled Scrum, they must still work in conformance of the Scrum guide.

    • A.True.(correct answer)
    • B.False.
    Show answer & explanationHide answer

    Correct answer: A

    True.

    Explanation

    Scaling Scrum does not mean abandoning its rules. Any scaling approach must still uphold the fundamental accountabilities, events, and artifacts defined in the Scrum Guide.

13. Question 13.In Scrum, how would budgeting and financial forecasting be performed? (Choose two.)

    • A.Frequently inspect the outcomes of the delivered Sprint Increments to understand how much value is being produced per investment spent.(correct answer)
    • B.A single release may be funded with several Sprints where every Sprint is producing shippable increments.(correct answer)
    • C.Budgeting is not necessary as the only funding necessary is the operational costs of the Scrum Teams.
    • D.Fixed budgets are not allowed in Scrum.
    Show answer & explanationHide answer

    Correct answer: A, B

    Frequently inspect the outcomes of the delivered Sprint Increments to understand how much value is being produced per investment spent. / A single release may be funded with several Sprints where every Sprint is producing shippable increments.

    Explanation

    Budgeting in Scrum is empirical. By inspecting delivered increments, organizations can make informed decisions about continued investment based on realized value.

14. Question 14.Steven is a Scrum Master that was hired to help an organization, that is new to Scrum, understands and enacts Scrum effectively.Which three activities would be acceptable? (Choose three.)

    • A.Require all teams in the organization to start using Scrum as soon as possible.
    • B.Arrange 1:1 coaching sessions to discuss any identified concerns Steven may have.(correct answer)
    • C.Schedule formal trainings.(correct answer)
    • D.Penalize any Scrum Team members who are not staying within the Scrum Framework.
    • E.Educate stakeholders and clients about Scrum.(correct answer)
    • F.Extend Retrospectives to include formal training.
    Show answer & explanationHide answer

    Correct answer: B, C, E

    Explanation

    Scrum Masters serve the organization through coaching, training, and helping stakeholders understand empirical product development.

15. Question 15.A Scrum Team has been working on a product for several iterations and has an average velocity of 55 units of 'done' work per Sprint. A second team will be added to work on the same product.What might be the impact on the original team?

    • A.Their velocity is likely not affected and will remain at 55.
    • B.Their velocity is likely to drop and be less than 55.(correct answer)
    • C.Their velocity is likely to rise and be more than 55.
    Show answer & explanationHide answer

    Correct answer: B

    Their velocity is likely to drop and be less than 55.

    Explanation

    Adding a new team introduces coordination overhead, potential conflict in shared codebases, and the 'forming' stage of team development, which typically lowers initial productivity.

16. Question 16.What would be two boundaries, defined in Scrum, that give guidance for teams to effectively self-organize? (Choose two.)

    • A.Timeboxing the events in Scrum to allow for regular inspection and adaptation creating opportunities to adjust course in any given path.(correct answer)
    • B.Clearly defined functional teams within the Development Team to define handoff phases during development.
    • C.Creating an integrated and potentially shippable Increment by the end of each Sprint.(correct answer)
    • D.Having a mixture of different levels of skills and experience to promote domain knowledge sharing.
    Show answer & explanationHide answer

    Correct answer: A, C

    Timeboxing the events in Scrum to allow for regular inspection and adaptation creating opportunities to adjust course in any given path. / Creating an integrated and potentially shippable Increment by the end of each Sprint.

    Explanation

    Scrum provides a 'lightweight' structure where time-boxes and the requirement to deliver a 'Done' increment serve as boundaries that guide the team's self-management.

17. Question 17.Peter, the Product Owner, has been giving positive recognition to individual Development Team members who have moved their work to 'done' during the Daily Scrum. Peter wants to ensure the team is adhering to the ideal guideline on the burndown chart.What would be two valid actions for Steven, the Scrum Master, to take? (Choose two.)

    • A.Steven talks with Peter about concerns of how his behavior might impact the team members and request that he stop attending for now.(correct answer)
    • B.Steven coaches Peter on best practices for updating the burndown chart as it provides accurate information on how well the team is performing.
    • C.Nothing. Steven is optional at the Daily Scrum and it is the responsibility of the team to decide how to best run it.
    • D.Steven coaches the Scrum Team about the purpose of the Daily Scrum.(correct answer)
    Show answer & explanationHide answer

    Correct answer: A, D

    Steven talks with Peter about concerns of how his behavior might impact the team members and request that he stop attending for now. / Steven coaches the Scrum Team about the purpose of the Daily Scrum.

    Explanation

    The SM should protect the team from behaviors that undermine self-management or turn collaborative events into individual performance evaluations.

18. Question 18.A Scrum Team has requested a hardening Sprint to integrate the work produced in previous Sprints and test before releasing.What three scenarios has likely occurred? (Choose three.)

    • A.The team's Definition of Done is not being adhered to during every Sprint.(correct answer)
    • B.The team's Definition of Done is weak or incomplete causing a build up of technical debt.(correct answer)
    • C.The Development Team is having difficulties with the ability to regularly release during a Sprint.(correct answer)
    • D.Hardening Sprints are supported by the Scrum framework so this is acceptable.
    • E.Scrum has been customized in a suitable manner to make the previous work releasable.
    Show answer & explanationHide answer

    Correct answer: A, B, C

    The team's Definition of Done is not being adhered to during every Sprint. / The team's Definition of Done is weak or incomplete causing a build up of technical debt. / The Development Team is having difficulties with the ability to regularly release during a Sprint.

    Explanation

    A request for a 'hardening Sprint' usually highlights that the team is not delivering a truly 'Done' and potentially shippable increment every single Sprint.

19. Question 19.Which three statements best describe the purpose of having a Definition of Done? (Choose three.)

    • A.It is a checklist to monitor the Development Team member's progress on a task.
    • B.It provides guidance to the Development Team when they are forecasting their Sprint Backlog during the Sprint Planning.(correct answer)
    • C.As the Development Team is doing the work, it provides guidance on the remaining work needed to create the potentially shippable Increment by the end of the Sprint.(correct answer)
    • D.It helps the Development Team defer any pending work to subsequent Sprints.
    • E.It creates transparency and provides a common understanding of the 'done' state of the Increment at the Sprint Review.(correct answer)
    • F.It helps the Scrum Team decide how much time is needed before the Sprint can end.
    Show answer & explanationHide answer

    Correct answer: B, C, E

    It provides guidance to the Development Team when they are forecasting their Sprint Backlog during the Sprint Planning. / As the Development Team is doing the work, it provides guidance on the remaining work needed to create the potentially shippable Increment by the end of the Sprint. / It creates transparency and provides a common understanding of the 'done' state of the Increment at the Sprint Review.

    Explanation

    The Definition of Done ensures everyone understands what 'Done' means, aids in planning/forecasting, and provides a clear bar for quality and transparency.

    Explanation

    External management supports the team by removing organizational barriers and providing the environment needed for self-managing teams to flourish.

22. Question 22.What would likely happen if management only changed the organization's current terminology to fit Scrum without the proper understanding and support of Scrum as defined in the Scrum Guide?

    • A.Very little change will happen as the vocabulary in Scrum is specifically defined for implementing Scrum.
    • B.The organization may not realize the real benefits of Scrum as there would be no real change on the way the teams work.
    • C.Organizations may feel less stressed as the behaviors would remain familiar to management.
    • D.All answers apply.(correct answer)
    Show answer & explanationHide answer

    Correct answer: D

    All answers apply.

    Explanation

    Superficial changes to titles without fundamental changes in accountability and empirical process control will not yield the benefits of agility.
