A sprint started with 354 requirements. As the sprint progressed, 14 requirements were introduced, 6 requirements were removed, and 28 requirements were changed. What was the requirements volatility for this sprint?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

Requirements volatility is calculated as the percentage of change in the total number of requirements during a sprint. The formula to calculate volatility is:

Volatility=(Introduced+Removed+Changed)Initial100text{Volatility} = frac{(text{Introduced} + text{Removed} + text{Changed})}{text{Initial}} times 100Volatility=Initial(Introduced+Removed+Changed)100

Using the given data:

Initial requirements = 354

Introduced = 14

Removed = 6

Changed = 28

Volatility=(14+6+28)35410013.5%text{Volatility} = frac{(14 + 6 + 28)}{354} times 100 approx 13.5%Volatility=354(14+6+28)10013.5%

I believe we add the introduced and changed requirements, then divide by the original total. But I'm not sure if I remember the final step correctly!

Wasn't there a specific way to calculate the percentage of volatility? I feel like I might be mixing it up with another metric.

I think we need to consider the total number of requirements and the changes made. It feels like a similar question we did in our last practice exam.

I remember we calculated requirements volatility in class, but I can't quite recall the exact formula.
