Scrum PSK-I Exam - Topic 1 Question 17 Discussion

Actual exam question for Scrum's PSK-I exam

[All PSK-I Questions]

What flow metric best indicates when multiple items from the Product Backlog will be finished?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

Cycle Time measures the time it takes for a single work item to go from start to completion. By understanding Cycle Time, a team can forecast when multiple items from the Product Backlog will likely be finished based on the average duration it takes to complete an item. This is essential in Kanban as it provides insight into the delivery timeline and is crucial for planning and predictability within a Scrum context. Reference: The Kanban Guide for Scrum Teams.

Hmm, I'm not sure, but I think Work in Progress (WIP) might be the answer here.

I'm leaning towards cumulative flow diagrams, but I need to double-check how they show the completion of multiple backlog items.

Could it be throughput? I feel like that was mentioned in a similar practice question about measuring team output.

I remember practicing a question about lead time versus cycle time, but I can't recall which one is more relevant for multiple items.

I think the flow metric might be cycle time, but I'm not entirely sure how it relates to multiple items being finished at once.

Based on what I've learned, I think Cycle Time is the way to go here. It provides a clear picture of how long it takes to finish each item, which can help predict when a group of items will be done.

I'm a bit confused on this one. Aren't there a few different flow metrics we could use? I'll need to review my notes to see which one is most relevant for tracking multiple item completion.

Cycle Time makes sense, but I'm also wondering if Lead Time could be a good indicator. It looks at the total time from when a work item is added to the Backlog until it's delivered.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. I was thinking Throughput might be a better metric, as it shows how many items are being completed over a given time period.
