Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A, C

Done means that the Increment is in a usable condition and meets the Scrum Team's Definition of Done. The Definition of Done is a formal description of the state of the Increment when it meets the quality measures required for the product. The Definition of Done creates transparency by providing everyone a shared understanding of what work was completed as part of the Increment. Having an Increment that could be released to end users means that it is potentially releasable, which is one of the goals of Scrum. All work performed meets the Definition of Done means that the Developers have ensured that every Product Backlog item selected for the Sprint conforms to the agreed quality standards.

I'm a bit confused. I feel like "B" could be relevant, but it doesn't really capture what "done" means in the context of a Sprint.

I remember practicing a question similar to this, and I think "C" makes sense too since the Definition of Done is key for quality.

I think "A" is definitely one of the answers because having a releasable Increment is crucial. But I'm not sure about the second one.
