A product Increment must be released to production at the end of each Sprint.
The correct answer is B, because a product Increment does not have to be released to production at the end of each Sprint. The Scrum Guide states that ''at the end of a Sprint, the new Increment must be 'Done,' which means it must be in useable condition and meet the Scrum Team's definition of 'Done'. An increment is a body of inspectable, done work that supports empiricism at the end of the Sprint. The increment is a step toward a vision or goal.'' Therefore, a product Increment must be potentially releasable, but the decision to release it is up to the Product Owner.
(What is the Scrum Master responsible for during the Sprint Retrospective?
Choose the best answer.)
The correct answer is D because the Scrum Master participates in the Sprint Retrospective as a member of the Scrum Team and facilitates the event when needed. According to the Scrum Guide, the Sprint Retrospective exists so the Scrum Team can inspect how the last Sprint went regarding individuals, interactions, processes, tools, and their Definition of Done, and then identify improvements to increase quality and effectiveness. The Scrum Master helps ensure that Scrum events take place and are positive, productive, and kept within the timebox. That includes helping the team use the Retrospective effectively.
Option A is incorrect because the Scrum Master is not merely a note-taker or scribe. Option B is incorrect because the Sprint Retrospective is for the Scrum Team, not a management reporting session. Option C is incorrect because action items are not ''prioritized'' by the Scrum Master alone; improvements are identified collaboratively by the Scrum Team.
The Scrum Master's role is to support meaningful reflection, encourage openness, and help the team turn insights into practical improvements within the Scrum framework.
What are two good ways for a Scrum Team to ensure security concerns are satisfied? (Choose two.)
According to the Scrum Guide1, 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 guides the Development Team in creating a ''Done'' Increment. The definition of ''Done'' is created by the development organization (or Development Team if none is available from the development organization). The definition of ''Done'' may vary significantly per Scrum Team, depending on the context. One aspect of Scrum Teams inspecting how they work toward their Product Goal is that they improve their definition of ''Done'' over time. Therefore, one good way for a Scrum Team to ensure security concerns are satisfied is to add security concerns to the definition of ''Done''. Another good way is to have the Scrum Team create Product Backlog items for each concern, as they are responsible for managing and refining the Product Backlog.
One of the Scrum events is the Daily Scrum. What are two intended outcomes of the Daily Scrum? (Choose two.)
According to the Scrum Guide, two intended outcomes of the Daily Scrum are a shared understanding of the most important work to be undertaken next to achieve the best possible progress toward the Sprint goal, and new impediments for the Scrum Master to take care of. The other options are not intended outcomes of the Daily Scrum, as they are either irrelevant (such as updating a Scrum board) or inappropriate (such as providing an update or a status report).
(Several Sprints into a project, the Product Owner tells the Scrum Master that a key stakeholder has just started using the product. The stakeholder is unhappy with the quality of the product, and the Product Owner agrees with the stakeholder's assessment that the quality is low. How should the Scrum Master respond to the Product Owner?
Choose the best two answers.)
The best answers are B and C because the Scrum Master serves both the Product Owner and the Scrum Team by helping address quality concerns in a constructive, transparent, and Scrum-consistent way. Quality in Scrum is not handled outside the team or delegated only to testers. When a stakeholder raises a concern about low quality, the issue should be made visible and addressed through the Product Backlog, the Definition of Done, and direct collaboration within the Scrum Team.
Option B is correct because quality expectations and stakeholder concerns should be reflected in Product Backlog items when appropriate, and the Developers need to understand those concerns clearly. Option C is also correct because the Scrum Master helps the Product Owner find an effective way to work with the Developers and address the issue empirically.
Option A is incorrect because acceptable quality standards are not solely for Developers to decide in isolation. Option D is incorrect because Scrum does not create a separate tester role responsible for quality. Option E is too passive and delayed. A significant quality concern should be addressed promptly, not simply postponed to the Sprint Retrospective.
