A high-performance Agile team:

A.

is fully committed to team success yet respects the prescribed roles and titles of team
members.

B.

owns its decisions and commitments and is motivated to succeed at any cost.

C.

is self-organizing, empowered to make decisions, and consensus-driven, with
constructive disagreement.

D.

produces a high volume of business value through intensive collaboration and
avoidance of conflict.

The term ¡°last responsible moment¡± refers to the moment at which:

A.

the iteration testing deadline arrives and code testing must stop.

B.

failing to make a decision eliminates an important alternative.

C.

release planning is complete and the first iteration planning starts.

D.

the implementation date is set and sponsor approval has been received.

The primary purpose of a Sprint Review is for the team to:

A.

Demonstrate what was accomplished during the sprint.

B.

Discuss what went well, whatdidn’t, and ways to improve.

C.

Prioritize and estimate stories planned for the next sprint.

D.

Individually provide status updates on user stories in progress.

Team A is producing 61 points per iteration and Team B is producing 20 points per
iteration. Team A has more senior engineers. A manager demands that Team B match
Team A’s points in the next iteration. Based on this information, it is reasonable to tell the
manager that:

A.

it is impossible to compare two separate teams on points alone.

B.

Team B’s points will match Team A if Team B gets more senior engineers.

C.

Team B must have help self-organizing so their points match Team A.

D.

Team B’s points will increase if the Product Owner becomes more involved.

The purpose of a project burndown chart is to:

A.

Identify and communicate upcoming milestones.

B.

Display the level of effort and resources utilized.

C.

Identify dependencies between sprints or iterations.

D.

Display the remaining work across time.

Based on the following figure, during Iteration 5, there was an increase in story point value
(shown on the graph); however, the team completed all of the work it promised to deliver in
the iteration and existing estimates were not changed. From this information, one can
inferthat:

A.

Work was removed from the Product Backlog.

B.

Work was added to the Product Backlog.

C.

The team's velocity increased.

D.

The team's velocity decreased.

A ScrumMaster:

A.

prioritizes the work for each iteration.

B.

directs the activities of the team.

C.

provides leadership, guidance, and coaching.

D.

manages the project scope and budget.

Which management style does Agile advocate?

A.

Task

B.

Team

C.

Product

D.

Performance

What is one of the benefits of incremental delivery?

A.

Value is delivered more quickly, as software can be released after every iteration.

B.

More customers can be handled simultaneously, as each regularly receives a delivery.

C.

Fewer bugs are introduced, as code is delivered to users more frequently.

D.

Costs are reduced, as less verification is required to regression test each iteration.

During iteration planning, the team is discussing the design for a user story. A team
member states that a design document should be started since the system is complex in
nature. Another team member responds that in Agile there is no documentation. How
should the ScrumMaster respond?

A.

Agree that documentation should be avoided, since it slows the progress of the team.

B.

Explain that interactions are valued over documentation, but documentation is not
forbidden.

C.

Ask the manager if the technical processes mandate that designs be documented.

D.

Ask the Product Owner if it is acceptable for the resources to spend time on
documentation.
