[All PSM-I Questions]

How much work Is required of the Developers to complete a Product Backlog Item selected during the Sprint Planning?

(choose the best answer)

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B, D

The best two answers are B and D. These two ways of dealing with regulatory compliance issues are consistent with Scrum's values and principles, as they allow the Scrum Team to deliver valuable and potentially releasable increments of the product while meeting the necessary standards and regulations. They also enable the Scrum Team to inspect and adapt their compliance strategy based on feedback and changing requirements.

A is not a good answer because it creates a separate silo of responsibility for compliance issues, which can lead to delays, conflicts, and inefficiencies. It also violates the Scrum value of transparency, as the compliance team may not have full visibility into the product development process.

C is not a good answer because it implies a waterfall approach that assumes all the compliance requirements are known and fixed upfront, which is rarely the case. It also reduces the flexibility and responsiveness of the Scrum Team, as they may have to follow a rigid plan that does not reflect the current reality of the product or the market.

Wait, can we really defer work like that? Seems off.

D seems tempting since it talks about fitting work into the Sprint, but I feel like that might not align with the Definition of Done either.

I’m a bit confused about C; it mentions proportional time, but I feel like that doesn't really capture the essence of what’s needed.

I think the answer might be B, but I'm not entirely sure if it covers everything needed for the Definition of Done.

I think the answer is C. The Developers should spend a proportional amount of time on analysis, design, development, and testing to deliver a potentially releasable increment.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused. Is it just the development work, or do we need to include testing as well? I'll have to review the Scrum Guide to be sure.

This seems like a straightforward question. I'd go with option B - a mix of work and outside activities. That's a well-known stress management technique.
