One Scrum Team is developing a product. They track how much software they produce as velocity. Their current velocity is 18 units of done work. A second team will be added to work on the same product. What is the most likely impact on the velocity of the original team?

I believe it’ll stay the same, they know how to manage their work.

Surprised this is even a question. More people usually means more coordination issues!

I’m not so sure. Maybe they’ll just adapt and keep it at 18.

Totally agree, adding a team can slow things down!

I think their velocity will probably decrease. More teams can complicate things.

I recall that adding more people can complicate things, so maybe their velocity will decrease? That seems possible.

I'm not really sure, but I feel like their velocity might stay the same since they already have a rhythm going.

I think I saw a practice question similar to this, and it suggested that the original team's velocity could actually increase due to shared knowledge.

I remember discussing how adding a second team can sometimes lead to coordination issues, which might slow down the original team's velocity.

Okay, I think I've got it. The study is comparing two procedures, and the best response measure to use would be the frequency of the behavior that is being targeted, which is hitting others. So the correct answer is C.

Okay, let's see. I'm pretty sure the answer has to do with managing the sites in the cluster, but I'm not sure which specific attribute is used for decommissioning. I'll need to review my notes on cluster management.

No problem, I've got this. I've worked through plenty of these forward contract questions before. I'll just need to plug the numbers into the right equations and I should be able to get the correct answers.

I'm kind of confused about the specifics of L3Out configurations. Was it Option B that we thought was correct in our last study group?

Haha, I bet the Scrum Master is wishing they had a crystal ball right about now. Trying to predict how velocity will change with a new team is like playing a carnival game - you never know which way the ball is going to bounce!

Definitely B! More people usually means more meetings, more bureaucracy, and more overhead. The original team is going to get bogged down trying to manage the new team. Velocity is going to take a hit, no doubt about it.

B) Their velocity is likely to decrease and be lower than 18.

I'm torn between A and B. On one hand, the extra resources could boost productivity, but on the other, the additional overhead of coordination might drag things down. I'll have to think this through more carefully.

I'm going with C. The original team's velocity should stay the same, as their own processes and capacity won't change just because another team is added. Coordination might be a challenge, but their individual velocity should remain steady.

Hmm, I think the answer is B. Adding a second team will likely increase the overall work being done, but it may also introduce coordination and integration challenges that could slow down the original team's velocity.

I agree with Myra, adding a new team shouldn't affect their velocity.
