NEW QUESTION 75
The Scrum Master is attending a meeting in which the Scrum Team is estimating the effort required to develop the functionality described in each User Story. The team wants to adopt an estimation technique through which they will be able to quickly estimate a large number of User Stories. Which of the following techniques do you think they should adopt?
- A. Planning Poker.
- B. Affinity Estimation.
- C. Wideband Delphi.
- D. Relative Sizing.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Affinity estimation is a technique used to quickly estimate a large number of User Stories. Using sticky notes or index cards or tape, the team places User Storied on a wall or other surface, in order from small to large. For this, each team member begins with a subset or User Stories from the overall Prioritized Product Backlog to place by relative size. This initial placement is done in silence. Once everyone has placed their User Stories on the wall, the team reviews all the placements and may move User Stories around as appropriate. The second part of the exercise involves discussion. Finally, the Product Owner will indicate some sizing categories on the wall. These categories can be small, medium or large, or they may be numbered using story point values to indicate relative size. The team will then move User Stories into these categories as the final step in the process. Some key benefits of this approach are that the process is very transparent, visible to everyone, and is easy to conduct.

NEW QUESTION 92
As a Scrum Master, you have to coordinate with the Product Owner to ensure that an appropriate Length of Sprint is determined keeping in mind the changes expected. Which of the following statements is true in this regard?
- A. To get maximum benefits from a Scrum project, it is always recommended to keep the Sprint Time-boxed to 6 weeks.
- B. It is advisable to consider the Release Dates for the overall product or service to determine the Length of Sprint.
- C. If the project is stable, with only minor changes expected, the Length of Sprint should be relatively shorter,
1 to 3 weeks. - D. The impact and frequency of expected changes do not have any impact on the decision related to the Length of Sprint.
Answer: C
Explanation:
If project requirements are generally stable and major changes are not expected in the near future, the Length of a Sprint may be set to be longer, 4 to 6 weeks. This provides stability to the Scrum Team members to work on the Prioritized Product Backlog requirements for lengthy periods of time without having to go through the Create User Stories, Approve, Estimate and Commit User Stories, Create Tasks, Estimate Task, and other related processes that are conducted for every Sprint. However, if project requirements are not very well defined or if significant changes are expected in the immediate future, the Length of Sprint may be relatively shorter, 1 to 3 weeks. This provides stability to the Scrum Team members to work on shorter Sprints and deliver results, which can be evaluated by the Product Owner and stakeholders at the end of the Sprint. This also provides enough flexibility for them to clarify requirements and make changes to the Prioritized Product Backlog at the end of each Sprint.

NEW QUESTION 94
Each Scrum role has specific responsibilities in managing a Scrum project. Below, choose the role that is correctly matched to its responsibility.
- A. Scrum Master - ensures that the requirements and Acceptance Criteria are not altered during the Sprint Review Meeting.
- B. Product Owner - invites to a grooming session only those stakeholders whose feedback is required and who can make final decisions about which suggested changes can be considered as Formal Change Requests.
- C. Stakeholders - incorporate new and modified features into the deliverables whenever possible.
- D. Scrum Team - decide whether the change can wait until the next Sprint or represents an urgent situation that may require ending the current Sprint and starting a new one.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Although the Stakeholder(s) and the Product Owner have the final say on Prioritized Product Backlog Items and whether to accept or reject any Change Requests presented during Demonstrate and Validate Sprint, it is the Scrum Master's responsibility to ensure that the requirements and Acceptance Criteria are not altered during the Sprint Review Meeting for the User Stories completed in the current Sprint. This prevents the rejection of completed User Stories based on the fact that they do not meet newly changed requirements. If any requirements need to be changed, any corresponding PBI needs to be revised to accommodate the modified requirements in a future Sprint.

- C. The Product Owner is responsible for the prioritization of risks and for communicating the prioritized list to the Scrum Team.
- D. The Stakeholders should be continuously informed about risks, including the potential impact of these risks and the plans for responding to each risk.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Because stakeholders have an interest in the project, it is important to communicate with them regarding risks.
Information provided to stakeholders related to risk should include potential impact and the plans for responding to each risk. This communication is on-going and should occur in parallel with the four sequential steps discussed thus far-risk identification, assessment, prioritization and mitigation. The Scrum Team may also discuss specific risks related to their Tasks with the Scrum Master during Daily Standup Meetings. The Product Owner is responsible for the prioritization of risks and for communicating the prioritized list to the Scrum Team. An important tool which can be used for communicating information related to risks is the Risk Burndown Chart.
