  • 2. 

    Scrum does not have a role called “project manager”.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Scrum doesn’t have a project manager role. The project management activities are distributed
    among the three Scrum roles.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    When is a Sprint canceled?

    • When the Development Team finds it necessary

    • When the Product Owner determines it makes no sense to finish it

    • When the Scrum Master decides to

    • When the infrastructure and tools are not ready for the whole project

    Correct Answer
    A. When the Product Owner determines it makes no sense to finish it
    Explanation
    Only the Product Owner has the authority to cancel a Sprint. It is done when the Sprint doesn’t
    make sense any more or the Sprint Goal has become obsolete.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    Which of the following can be delivered as the output of a Sprint?

    • A set of tests designed to be used in the next Sprint

    • A document that shows the solution design and helps the team develop the product

    • An Increment of Done software

    • A user interface layout designed to be used for the solution

    Correct Answer
    A. An Increment of Done software
    Explanation
    All Sprints are done to create Increments: a piece of working software which is potentially
    shippable and “Done”, based on the Definition of Done (including all the tests). All items we deliver
    are non­technical and independent of each other.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    Scrum is a detailed software development methodology.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Scrum is a framework rather than a methodology, and it’s not detailed.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    What’s the timebox for a complete Sprint Planning meeting?

    • 8 hours for a one month Sprint

    • 8 hours for a two week Sprint

    • 6 hours for a one month Sprint

    • 6 hours for a two week Sprint

    Correct Answer
    A. 8 hours for a one month Sprint
    Explanation
    The Sprint Planning is timeboxed for 8 hours when the Sprint is one month long, and shorter
    proportionally.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    When should the Sprint Retrospective be held?

    • When needed, based on lessons learned

    • When asked by the Scrum Master

    • When asked by the Product Owner

    • Each Sprint

    Correct Answer
    A. Each Sprint
    Explanation
    All events are necessary and are held every Sprint; including the Sprint Retrospective, which is
    the last event inside each Sprint.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    How much of the Sprint Backlog should be defined during the Sprint Planning meeting?

    • Just enough to understand the design and architecture.

    • Just enough for the Development Team to be able to forecast what it can do, and start the first several days of the Sprint.

    • Just enough for the Scrum Master to be able to assign tasks to developers

    • Just enough for the Scrum Master to be able to assign tasks to developers

    Correct Answer
    A. Just enough for the Development Team to be able to forecast what it can do, and start the first several days of the Sprint.
    Explanation
    There are two elements in the Sprint Backlog:
    1. The items selected from the Product Backlog: we don’t change them after the Sprint Planning
    2. The tasks created by breaking down the items: only a few of them are created in the Sprint
    Planning, and the rest will be created during the Sprint. Otherwise, it would be a form of
    upfront planning. Tasks are referred to as “work” or “plan” in the PSM I exam.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    It’s better to have longer Sprints when the project is riskier.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    When Sprints are shorter, there are more opportunities for demonstration, receiving feedback, and
    adaptation. So, when risks are higher, it’s better to have shorter Sprints (if it’s possible).
    Generally, shorter Sprints are preferred.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    There should be a hardening Sprint every few Sprints, to resolve dependencies and fix open bugs.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    There’s only one type of Sprint, and its goal is to create a potentially releasable Increment of
    features that bring value to the customer. There’s no Sprint zero, hardening Sprint, integration
    Sprint, release Sprint, etc.

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

    Who’s responsible for engaging the stakeholders?

    • The Product Owner

    • The project manage

    • The Scrum Master

    • The Development Team

    • The team leader

    Correct Answer
    A. The Product Owner
    Explanation
    The Product Owner is responsible for engaging them, understanding them, communicating with
    them and so on.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    When the Scrum Team becomes mature enough, it doesn’t need a Scrum Master anymore

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Every Scrum Team needs a Scrum Master and a Product Owner, even if they are mature. Both
    roles can be part­time.
    Remember that the Scrum Master is also responsible for removing impediments. And it doesn’t
    matter how mature you are in the process; it’s always great to have someone to help you with
    issues.

    Rate this question:

  • 13. 

    Which of the following is the best way a Scrum Master can increase the team productivity?

    • Ordering the Product Backlog items properly

    • Preventing changes to the Sprint Backlog once the Sprint begins

    • Assigning tasks to developers and following up on them

    • Facilitating meetings and removing impediments

    Correct Answer
    A. Facilitating meetings and removing impediments
    Explanation
    Facilitation (as requested or needed), removing impediments and solving problems, training,
    coaching, consulting, and convincing people to do the right thing are the things we expect from the
    Scrum Master. S/he is not supposed to block the team’s self­organization by giving developers
    orders, or deciding for them, and s/he is not supposed to do other people’s jobs (e.g. ordering the
    items instead of letting the Product Owner do so).

    Rate this question:

  • 14. 

    The customer has the final say on the order of Product Backlog items.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The decision on the order of items can be influenced by a committee, the customer, or any other
    stakeholder, but the final say belongs to the Product Owner. This decision should be respected by
    the whole organization.

    Rate this question:

  • 15. 

    When is a Sprint over?

    • When all Sprint Backlog tasks are done

    • When the timebox expires

    • When all Sprint Backlog items are done

    • When the Product Owner considers it done, with any appropriate reason

    Correct Answer
    A. When the timebox expires
    Explanation
    Sprints are timeboxed and they are not extendable. Some timeboxes have a maximum duration
    and will be finished earlier if everything is done, but Sprint timeboxes have a fixed duration, which
    does not shrink either. If everything is finished before the end of the Sprint, the Development Team
    will pick the next item from the Product Backlog and starts working on that.

    Rate this question:

  • 16. 

    The Scrum Master should cancel the Sprint Planning, if the Sprint Goal is not composed beforehand.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The Sprint Goal is composed by the whole Scrum Team during the Sprint Planning. Besides
    that, we don’t cancel the Sprint Planning anyway! The Sprint can be canceled only in extreme
    situations, by the decision of the Product Owner.

    Rate this question:

  • 17. 

    When should a Sprint Goal be created?

    • In the previous Sprint Retrospective

    • In the beginning of the project

    • In the Sprint Planning meeting

    • Any time during the Sprint

    • It’s not mandatory

    Correct Answer
    A. In the Sprint Planning meeting
    Explanation
    The Sprint Goal is created during the Sprint Planning meeting by the whole Scrum Team.

    Rate this question:

  • 18. 

    What should the Product Owner do during the Sprint zero?

    • There’s no such thing as Sprint zero

    • Prepare the Product Backlog for the next few Sprints

    • Prepare the Product Backlog for the whole project

    • Communicate with the customer and understand the requirements

    Correct Answer
    A. There’s no such thing as Sprint zero
    Explanation
    There’s no such thing as Sprint zero. The first Sprint is called Sprint 1, and it’s exactly the same as
    other Sprints: creates an Increment. The infrastructure and tools and requirements are prepared
    gradually throughout the project.

    Rate this question:

  • 19. 

    What’s the main responsibility of testers?

    • There’s no tester role in Scrum

    • They proactively verify the programmers output

    • They help the team incorporate the test driven development practice

    • They verify the programmers output

    • They find bugs

    Correct Answer
    A. There’s no tester role in Scrum
    Explanation
    There are only three roles in Scrum: Product Owner, Scrum Master, and Development Team. It’s
    not allowed to define new roles and the Development Team members should not have any titles;
    they are all just “developers”. It is so, because we want all of them to be accountable for
    everything and to collaborate with each other.
    Each person has his/her own area of expertise, such as testing, and that person will be more
    focused on testing tasks, but it doesn’t mean that we can call the person “tester”; they are just
    developers who are experts in testing.

    Rate this question:

  • 20. 

    Who estimates the work during the Sprint?

    • The Scrum Master

    • The Development Team

    • The Product Owner

    • The Development Team and the Product Owner together

    • The whole Scrum Team

    Correct Answer
    A. The Development Team
    Explanation
    All estimates are done by the Development Team, since they are the ones who know how to do
    the work.

    Rate this question:

  • 21. 

    Which does a self­organizing Development Team choose?

    • Product Backlog ordering

    • When to release

    • Sprint length

    • How to best accomplish its work

    Correct Answer
    A. How to best accomplish its work
    Explanation
    The Product Backlog order and composition, project performance measurement, and release
    planning are the Product Owner’s responsibilities. The Sprint length is determined by the whole
    Scrum Team.

    Rate this question:

  • 22. 

    Who’s required to attend the Daily Scrum?

    • The Development Team members and the Product Owner

    • The Development Team members and the Scrum Master

    • The Development Team members

    • The whole Scrum Team

    Correct Answer
    A. The Development Team members
    Explanation
    Anyone “can attend” any meeting, but note that the questions is asking who’s required to do so.
    Daily Scrum is only for the Development Team, so no one else is “required to attend”, and if they
    do, they are not supposed to “participate”; they just listen and watch.

    Rate this question:

  • 23. 

    Which statement best describes the Sprint Backlog?

    • It’s the Development Team’s plan for the Sprint

    • Each of its items is assigned to a team member

    • Each of its items has been estimated in hours

    • It’s composed by the Product Owner

    Correct Answer
    A. It’s the Development Team’s plan for the Sprint
    Explanation
    The Sprint Backlog is created during the Sprint Planning. It includes the items selected from the
    Product Backlog (by the Development Team), and the tasks created by decomposing the items
    (by the Development Team). The Development Team keeps adding tasks during the Sprint, so, the
    Sprint Backlog updates. It’s the Development Team’s plan for the current Sprint. This plan is not
    detailed upfront.
    If the Development Team cannot deliver some of the items, they will go back to the Product
    Backlog at the end of the Sprint, and they will be ordered again; they do not go to the next Sprint
    automatically.
    Each task is assigned to one developer or a pair of developers, but the ownership is still shared.
    Items are not assigned or owned by specific developers; all of them share accountability

    Rate this question:

  • 24. 

    Who determines how work is performed during the Sprint?

    • The business analyst

    • The Development Team

    • The solution architect

    • The Product Owner

    • The Scrum Team

    Correct Answer
    A. The Development Team
    Explanation
    It is completely up to the self­organized Development Team to decide on the way they work and on
    the technical aspects of the project.

    Rate this question:

  • 25. 

    The customer wants the Development Team to add a very important item to the current Sprint. What should they do?

    • Reject the request

    • Refer the customer to the Product Owner

    • Add the item to the current Sprint Backlog

    • Replace an item in the current Sprint Backlog with the new one

    • Add the item to the Product Backlog

    Correct Answer
    A. Refer the customer to the Product Owner
    Explanation
    Only the Product Owner can add new items to the Product Backlog. Even s/he cannot add a new
    item to the Sprint Backlog during the Sprint.
    When someone asks for a change in the Sprint Backlog, they should be referred to the Product
    Owner, so that s/he can work with them to define the item and add it to the Product Backlog for the
    next Sprints.
    In fact, we reject the request for adding the item to the current Sprint Backlog, but this rejection
    should be done by the Product Owner, rather than the Development Team.

    Rate this question:

  • 26. 

    Each Sprint Backlog item is owned by one, or a pair of developers.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The Developers share the ownership of the items and tasks in the Sprint Backlog.
    Tasks are assigned to the Developers (by themselves), but they all stay accountable (own the
    task).
    Items are not assigned to Developers, as each item consists of multiple tasks that need varying
    expertise.
    To summarize:
    1. Items are not owned by individuals or pairs
    2. Items are not assigned to individuals or pairs
    3. Tasks are not owned by individuals or pairs
    4. Tasks are indeed assigned to individuals or pairs

    Rate this question:

  • 27. 

    Which of the following is NOT a responsibility of the Scrum Master?

    • Facilitating Scrum events

    • Removing impediments for the Development Team 

    • Assigning tasks to individual developers 

    • Coaching the organization in Scrum adoption

    Correct Answer
    A. Assigning tasks to individual developers 
    Explanation
    The Scrum Master serves as a servant-leader for the Scrum Team, helping them understand and apply Scrum principles and practices. They facilitate Scrum events, remove impediments, and coach the organization in adopting Scrum. However, they do not assign tasks to individual developers. The Development Team is self-organizing and decides how to best accomplish the work in the Sprint Backlog.

    Rate this question:

  • 28. 

    The Product Owner determines the number of items that should be selected for each Sprint.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    it is totally up to the Development Team to decide how many items they are going to select for the
    Sprint.

    Rate this question:

  • 29. 

    Which is NOT a Development Team responsibility?

    • Optimizing the work required for Sprint Backlog items

    • Resolving internal team conflicts

    • Measuring the performance of the Sprint

    • Selecting the Product Owner

    Correct Answer
    A. Selecting the Product Owner
    Explanation
    It’s the Development Team’s responsibility to measure their productivity and performance during
    the Sprint, find their way, plan, and optimize the work required for items and the Sprint Goal, and to
    resolve their own conflicts. Remember that they are self­organized.

    Rate this question:

  • 30. 

    What are the benefits of having tests in the Definition of Done? (Choose 3 answers)

    • Increments will be more complete

    • Reporting to the project manager will be easier

    • There will be increased transparency of the Increments

    • Increments will be closer to being potentially shippable

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Increments will be more complete
    A. There will be increased transparency of the Increments
    A. Increments will be closer to being potentially shippable
    Explanation
    Items are not really Done, unless we have tested them; so, tests should be included in the
    Definition of Done. In this case, the Increments will be closer to what we can practically call
    “complete”, “done”, “potentially releasable”, or “potentially shippable”; to something usable for the
    users.
    Increments should be potentially releasable; for starters, because it makes it easier for the
    customer to try it and give us useful feedback. The feedback enables adaptation, which is
    essential to Agile.
    Having an effective Definition of Done increases transparency, because everyone will know what
    we mean when we say an item is Done.
    Reporting to the “project manager”? We don’t have a project manager in Scrum.

    Rate this question:

  • 31. 

    How is a Product Backlog ordered?

    • Based on the value of the items

    • Based on the size of the items

    • Based on the criticality of the items

    • Based on dependencies among the items

    • Based on the amount of risk related to each item

    Correct Answer
    A. Based on the value of the items
    Explanation
    The Product Backlog is ordered based on the value of the items to the business, and it is up to the
    Product Owner to determine how to calculate the value.
    Size, criticality, and risk all affect the “value”, but are not directly the basis for ordering.
    Items should be independent of each other, so that we can freely order them based on the value.

    Rate this question:

  • 32. 

    What’s the vertical axis in a typical burn­down chart?

    • The technical debt

    • The progress

    • The amount of remaining work

    • The capacity of the team

    Correct Answer
    A. The amount of remaining work
    Explanation
    The horizontal axis is time, the vertical axis is the remaining amount of work, and the trend line
    shows the forecast finish date if the Product Backlog and the team capacity stay the same.

    Rate this question:

  • 33. 

    When must a new Increment of working software be available?

    • Every 3 Sprints

    • At the end of each Sprint

    • Whenever the user acceptance testing is done

    • When the Product Owner asks for it

    • Before each planned release

    Correct Answer
    A. At the end of each Sprint
    Explanation
    An Increment of “Done” working software, which is potentially releasable, must be produced at the
    end of each Sprint.
    Remember that all Sprints are the same, and there are no Sprint Zeros, Hardening Sprints,
    Integration Sprints, Release Sprints, etc.

    Rate this question:

  • 34. 

    When can a Development Team cancel a Sprint?

    • The Sprint doesn’t make sense any more

    • They can’t cancel Sprints

    • There’s an unsolved technical dependency

    • Not enough information is available for the development

    Correct Answer
    A. They can’t cancel Sprints
    Explanation
    Only the Product Owner has the authority to cancel a Sprint. It happens when the Product Owner
    realizes that the Sprint doesn’t make sense any more, or in other words, the Sprint Goal has become obsolete. E.g. if the customer doesn’t need most of the Sprint Backlog items any more.
    Note: it’s OK if we forecast that the team cannot deliver some of the Sprint Backlog items (or even
    many of them) and it’s not a reason for canceling a Sprint. We will just go on and deliver as many
    items as possible.

    Rate this question:

  • 35. 

    Which two of the following are true about Scrum?

    • Scrum is a framework for developing and maintaining complex products

    • Scrum is a methodology for managing complex projects

    • Scrum is based on empirical process control theory

    • Scrum is like a traditional process but with Sprints and related artifacts

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Scrum is a framework for developing and maintaining complex products
    A. Scrum is based on empirical process control theory
    Explanation
    A few related points to remember:
    1. Scrum is a framework, not a methodology or body of knowledge.
    2. Scrum is empirical, rather than theoretical.
    3. Scrum is more about project delivery rather than project management.
    4. Scrum is adaptive, rather than predictive (it’s more than just using Sprints and related
    artifacts).
    5. Scrum should be used entirely (we do not tailor it).

    Rate this question:

  • 36. 

    Which of the following best describes the Product Backlog?

    • It grows and change as more is learned about the project

    • It provides information required for the design phase of the project

    • It’s a baseline for the change management process

    • It contains all the tasks required for the project

    Correct Answer
    A. It grows and change as more is learned about the project
    Explanation
    The Product Backlog is a type of planning. However, we don’t create predictive, detailed upfront
    plans in Agile environments: the Product Backlog is dynamic and never complete. It provides only
    enough information for a self­organized team to find its own way. It’s always changing to enable adaptation.
    There are no “tasks” in the Product Backlog; they belong to the Sprint Backlogs

    Rate this question:

  • 37. 

    Which of the following is common when the Scrum Team becomes mature enough during the project?

    • The won’t need Sprint Reviews any more

    • They won’t need a Scrum Master any more

    • They will improve the Definition of Done

    • They won’t need Sprint Retrospectives any more

    • They can release every Increment

    Correct Answer
    A. They will improve the Definition of Done
    Explanation
    The Definition of Done includes quality methods and that’s why we keep improving it when we
    mature.
    All Scrum roles, events, and artifacts are necessary and should not be ignored for any reason.

    Rate this question:

  • 38. 

    Which three of the following are feedback loops?

    • Daily Scrum

    • Sprint Retrospective

    • Sprint Review

    • Product Backlog refinement

    • Release planning

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Daily Scrum
    A. Sprint Retrospective
    A. Sprint Review
    Explanation
    All four events inside the Sprint are feedback loops and opportunities for inspection and adaptation
    (but not the Sprint itself). So, any of the following are right answers for questions like this:
    1. Sprint Planning
    2. Daily Scrum
    3. Sprint Review
    4. Sprint Retrospective
    Remember that while Scrum.org considers “release planning” necessary, and a responsibility of
    the Product Owner, it’s not explained in the Scrum Guide.

    Rate this question:

  • 39. 

    What happens if the Development Team cannot complete its work by the end of the Sprint?

    • Nothing

    • The Development Team will continue to the next Sprint without a Sprint Review

    • The Sprint will be canceled

    • The Sprint will be extended

    Correct Answer
    A. Nothing
    Explanation
    Nothing happens! The Development Team will deliver only the items that are 100% done based on
    the Definition of Done.
    The only things the Development Team may do, is inform the Product Owner, so that s/he can
    revise the order of items ­if necessary­ and work with her/him to review and adjust the work
    (“work” here refers to the “tasks”, not the “items”).

    Rate this question:

  • 40. 

    When does the Development Team prepare the tools and infrastructure for the development?

    • Throughout the project

    • In the Sprint zero

    • Before the first Sprint

    Correct Answer
    A. Throughout the project
    Explanation
    We do not prepare the infrastructure and tools upfront, because it requires an understanding of the
    whole product, which is against the adaptation concept. The required infrastructure and tools
    depend on the product we’re going to create, which in turn is defined throughout the project. So,
    the infrastructure and tools will be prepared gradually throughout the project.
    There’s no Sprint zero in Scrum. All Sprints are the same, used to create an Increment of working
    software.

    Rate this question:

  • 41. 

    How can security concerns be addressed in Scrum? (Choose 2 answers)

    • They can be added to the Product Backlog

    • They can be added to the Definition of Done

    • They can be handled in a separate Sprint dedicated to security

    • They can be outsourced to a department responsible for security

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. They can be added to the Product Backlog
    A. They can be added to the Definition of Done
    Explanation
    Many of the security concerns are non­functional features, and therefore will be added to the
    Definition of Done to be applied to all Product Backlog items.
    Some security concerns are specific, and only about a certain part of the product; they can be
    items in the Product Backlog.
    The Development Team is cross­functional and should take care of every aspect of the product,
    including security. So, it won’t be handled by external people.
    Each Sprint should be focused on developing items with the highest value, and delivering Done
    items. We don’t keep things such as security, tests, and integration for a time in the future.

    Rate this question:

  • 42. 

    When is a Sprint Backlog item considered complete?

    • When all of its tasks are complete

    • When everything is done based on the Definition of Done

    • When the Sprint is over

    • When the user acceptance tests are done

    Correct Answer
    A. When everything is done based on the Definition of Done
    Explanation
    When the item is complete based on the Definition of Done (which means that the end users can
    use it), and it creates an Increment of working software that is potentially releasable.
    Note: if all the tasks for an item are complete, it doesn’t necessarily mean that the item is complete,
    because we might have forgotten to add some of the tasks to begin with.

    What should be done between a Sprint Retrospective and the next Sprint Planning?

    • Nothing; there’s no time between the two

    • Refactor the developed items

    • Release the Increment

    • Prepare for the Sprint Planning

    Correct Answer
    A. Nothing; there’s no time between the two
    Explanation
    There’s no time between one Sprint and the next.
    Ordering the Product Backlog items and estimating the amount of work of new items needed for
    the next Sprint Planning is done during the previous one, in a continuous process called Product
    Backlog refinement (or Product Backlog grooming).

    Items in the Product Backlog are usually larger than items in the Sprint Backlogs.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    This is how it works:
    a. Items of different sizes are added to the Product Backlog.
    b. Items are sorted based on their business value.
    c. Then we check the items on the top of the Product Backlog, and if they are large, we’ll break
    them down into smaller items. We leave the large items on the bottom of the Product Backlog
    as they are for now.
    d. The business values will be estimated again, and the Product Backlog sorted based on them.
    Based on this explanation, the items on the top of the Product Backlog would be, statistically
    speaking, smaller than the average. Since the items in the Sprint Backlog come from the top of the
    Product Backlog, we can say that “the items in the Sprint Backlog are usually smaller than the
    average item in the Product Backlog”.
    Remember that we sort the Product Backlog items based only on their business value. The
    difference in size happens naturally, and is not a basis for sorting.

    Scrum Teams should normalize their estimations, so that management can measure and compare their performance

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    It’s almost impossible to make the estimate units (e.g. story points) comparable, and only creates
    problems such as padding. Besides that, the “management” is not supposed to measure their
    performance; they should be focused on the values generated by the project.

    What are two common benefits of self­organization?

    • Increased commitment

    • Increased predictability

    • Increased self-­accountability

    • Increased rule compliance

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Increased commitment
    A. Increased self-­accountability
    Explanation
    Being self­organized means that the team finds its own way, instead of receiving orders. When it is
    so, there is more buy­in (commitment), accountability, and creativity among team members.

    The Sprint Review is:

    • An opportunity for improving the Scrum processes

    • An opportunity for reviewing the viability of the project

    • An opportunity for inspection and adaptation

    • An opportunity for receiving approval for the work done

    Correct Answer
    A. An opportunity for inspection and adaptation
    Explanation
    All four events inside the Sprint are opportunities for inspection and adaptation: Sprint Planning,
    Daily Scrums, Sprint Review, Sprint Retrospective
    During the Sprint Review, the Development Team demonstrates the Increment and the Product
    Owner presents the performance information.

    All Increments should be potentially releasable

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    All Increments must be complete based on the Definition of Done, and be potentially
    releasable/shippable. However, we don’t have to actually release all of them. It’s up to the Product
    Owner to decide on the releases based on the project environment.

    A developer does not work properly and is blocking the team activity. Who should decide on removing that person?

    • The Product Owner

    • The Development Team

    • The resource manager

    • The Scrum Master

    Correct Answer
    A. The Development Team
    Explanation
    This is the responsibility of the Development Team, because it’s self­organized. Since it’s some
    kind of impediment, they may also get help from the Scrum Master.
