I was also leaning towards option B, 1 hour. That seems like a more reasonable duration, especially if the Sprint went well and there aren't too many issues to discuss.

Wait, really? 4 hours for a one-month Sprint Retrospective? That seems like a lot. I was thinking more like 1 hour, option B.

Hmm, I'm not so sure about that. The Scrum Guide does mention that the Retrospective is a 3-hour time-box for a one-month Sprint. So I think option A, 4 hours, is the correct answer.

I'd go with option C, 'It is not time-boxed (as long as needed)'. The Retrospective should be as long as it needs to be to address the important issues and find ways to improve.

Yeah, I agree. The Scrum Guide doesn't specify a fixed duration for the Sprint Retrospective. It's probably best to keep it focused and not let it drag on.

Hmm, this question is a bit tricky. I've heard that Sprint Retrospectives are supposed to be time-boxed, but I'm not sure about the exact duration.
