During a sprint, it is important to avoid situations where the remaining work is flat for a long period of time or goes up and down in spikes. This indicates a lack of progress or inconsistent progress, which can hinder the team's ability to meet their sprint goals. Additionally, if the sprint is nearly finished and there is still a lot of work remaining, it suggests that the team may not be able to complete the planned work within the sprint timebox.Rate this question:

Which of the following configurations is not supported?
- A.
Multiple teams working towards a single release, each with their own burndown.
- B.
A single team working on multiple releases.
- C.
Multiple teams working towards a single release, with a single burndown.
Correct Answer
B. A single team working on multiple releases.Explanation
A single team working on multiple releases is not supported because it can lead to a lack of focus and prioritization. Each release typically requires dedicated attention and resources to ensure its success. When a team is spread too thin across multiple releases, it can result in delays, quality issues, and a higher risk of failure for all the releases. It is more efficient and effective to have separate teams dedicated to each release, allowing them to focus on delivering the best possible outcome for their specific release.Rate this question:
