Which statement is least accurate when providing a definition of "Done"? (Choose the best answer)

AIt is the exit criteria to determine whether a Product Backlog item is complete

BIt may vary depending on the project

CIt is defined by the Scrum Master

DIt becomes more complete over time

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

The Definition of 'Done' is a team or organizational standard, not the Scrum Master's sole responsibility. The Scrum Guide states: 'If it is not an organizational standard, the Scrum Team must create a Definition of Done appropriate for the product.'

A: Accurate---it defines completion.

B: True---it can differ by context or product.

C: Least accurate---the Scrum Team or organization defines it, not just the Scrum Master.

D: Correct---it evolves with maturity.

Exact Extract from Scrum Guide: 'The Definition of Done is a formal description of the state of the Increment when it meets the quality measures required for the product... If it is not an organizational standard, the Scrum Team must create [it].' (Section: 'Definition of Done')

Thus, C is correct.

Haha, the Scrum Master defining "Done"? That's like the teacher telling the students what they learned!

Option D is the most accurate. The definition of "Done" should become more complete and refined over the course of the project.

Option C is definitely the least accurate. The Scrum Master doesn't define "Done", the team does!

I’m a bit confused about D; I thought "Done" should be consistent and not change too much over time.

I’m not entirely sure, but I feel like "Done" should be defined by the team, not just the Scrum Master.

I remember discussing how "Done" is supposed to be a shared understanding among the team, so I think C might be the least accurate.

I'm a bit confused on this one. I know the "Definition of Done" is important, but I'm not totally sure how to apply it to this question. I might have to guess on this one.

I'm leaning towards D. The "Definition of Done" is supposed to become more comprehensive as the project progresses, right? That's how I remember it from the Scrum guide.

Okay, let me think this through. The "Definition of Done" is the exit criteria, so A seems right. But it does get more complete over time, so D could also be a good answer.

I think the answer is C. The Scrum Master doesn't define the "Definition of Done" - that's up to the whole Scrum team.
