Discuss Scrum PSM-I Exam Topic 5 Question 99

When is a Sprint over?

AWhen the Product Owner says it is done.

BWhen all Product Backlog items meet their definition of ''Done''.

CWhen all the tasks are completed.

DWhen the time-box expires.

Suggested Answer: D

The correct answer is D, because the Scrum Guide states that ''a Sprint is a container for all other events. Each event in Scrum is a formal opportunity to inspect and adapt something. These events are specifically designed to enable critical transparency and inspection. Failure to include any of these events results in reduced transparency and is a lost opportunity to inspect and adapt.'' Therefore, a Sprint is over when its time-box expires, regardless of whether all Product Backlog items or tasks are completed or not.

True, but we can't stretch time.

D is also valid, but what if tasks aren't done?

Exactly, B ensures quality.

A seems too subjective. Product Owner can be biased.

Wait, are we sure it's not A? Product Owner has the final say, right?

D is the correct answer! Time-box is key.

I’m leaning towards option B because it mentions the definition of "Done," which seems crucial, but I could be mixing it up with another concept.

I practiced a question like this, and I feel like it was about all the tasks being completed, but that might not be the full picture.

Hollis 6 months ago

I remember something about the Product Owner needing to confirm it's done, but that seems a bit vague compared to the other options.

Gertude 6 months ago

I think a Sprint is over when the time-box expires, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the only condition.
