[All PSM-I Questions]

If burndown charts are used to visualize progress, what do they track?

AAccumulated cost.

BIndividual worker productivity.

CWork remaining across time.

DAccumulated business value delivered to the customer.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A, C

The best two answers are A and C. These two ways of creating Scrum Teams are consistent with Scrum's values because they respect the self-organization and empowerment of the people who will be working in the teams. They also foster openness and courage by allowing the people to express their preferences and opinions about the new structure.

B, D and E are not consistent with Scrum's values because they impose a top-down approach that does not involve the people who will be affected by the change. They also undermine the commitment and focus of the teams by assigning them to work on something they may not be interested in or passionate about.

Narrative recording doesn't seem very precise for this type of data. I'm leaning towards either duration or frequency recording, but I'll have to weigh the pros and cons of each.
