[Mar 28, 2022] Step by Step Guide to Prepare for PSM-II Exam BrainDumps [Q71-Q89]

NEW QUESTION 71
What is the Development Team responsible for?

Writing User Stories and ordering the Product Backlog.

Reporting productivity and selecting the Sprint time-box.

Organizing the work required to meet the Sprint Goal and resolving internal team conflicts.

NEW QUESTION 72
What should the Development Team do if they are approached by someone outside the team and asked to add a “very important” item to a Sprint that is in progress?

Add the item to the bottom of the Sprint Backlog.

Replace an item in the current Sprint of equal size.

Add the item to the top of the next Sprint Backlog.

Inform the Product Owner so he/she can work with the person.

NEW QUESTION 73
The director of engineering in your organization always stresses the importance of meeting deadlines in order for the engineering department to be seen as a reliable source for the product management department. The director has calculated that the team’s velocity needs to increase an additional 15% to meet the commitment he made to management for the release date of the product.
He asks Steven, the team’s Scrum Master, to increase his team’s velocity. Which would be the best two responses for Steven to take? (Choose two.)

He explains how a team uses the velocity of a Sprint primarily to forecast work for the next Sprint, not to perfectly predict future productivity. He refers the director to the Product Owner for all information concerning the progress of development.

He informs the director of organizational impediments he is aware of that prevent the team from being more productive. He suggests collaborating with him on how to remove these impediments.

He educates his director how it is part of a team’s self-organization to improve velocity. He invites the director to the next Sprint Retrospective to brainstorm on how they can improve.

He helps the director understand that it typically takes a few Sprints for a team to gradually increase the velocity up to the level expected. Meanwhile he presents this to the team as a challenge and a company goal, leaving it however up to them to figure out exactly how to achieve this.

He tells the director that this is not his responsibility in Scrum. He tells the director to work with the Product Owner to check whether the estimates on the Product Backlog are being respected during implementation.

NEW QUESTION 74
A Scrum Team has requested a hardening Sprint to integrate the work produced in previous Sprints and test before releasing.
What three scenarios has likely occurred? (Choose three.)

The team’s Definition of Done is not being adhered to during every Sprint.

The team’s Definition of Done is weak or incomplete causing a build up of technical debt.

The Development Team is having difficulties with the ability to regularly release during a Sprint.

Hardening Sprints are supported by the Scrum framework so this is acceptable.

Scrum has been customized in a suitable manner to make the previous work releasable.

NEW QUESTION 75
Steven is a Scrum Master of a Scrum Team that is new to Scrum. At the halfway point of the Sprint, the Product Owner comes to Steven telling him that he is concerned the Development Team will not be able to complete the entire Sprint Backlog by the end of the Sprint.
What should Steven do in this situation?

Motivate the Development Team to meet their commitment to the Product Owner.

Coach the Product Owner that with complex software development, you cannot promise the entire scope that was forecast during Sprint Planning. As more is learned during the Sprint, work may emerge that affects the Sprint Backlog.

Advise the Product Owner that the Development Team owns the Sprint Backlog and it is up to them to meet their commitments. No one tells the Development Team how to turn Product Backlog into Increments of potentially releasable functionality.

Add more people to the Development Team to meet the Product Owner’s expectations.

NEW QUESTION 76
Which statement is correct about the length of the Sprints?

All Sprints must be one month or less and it is optimal to have a consistent Sprint length.

The Sprint length is dependent on the development effort forecasted (amount of items selected) during Sprint Planning.

The Sprint length is calculated by aggregating the time required to design, code and test.

The Sprint Length is defined by the Scrum Master.

NEW QUESTION 77
Technical Debt can lead to false assumptions about the current state of the system and the Increment reviewed at the end of the Sprint.

True

False

NEW QUESTION 78
As a Scrum Master, what would you strive for if five new Scrum Teams were to work on one product?

There should be five Product Owners, one for each Scrum Team.

The product has one Product Backlog and one Product Owner.

There should be five Product Backlogs and one Product Owner to manage them.

There should be five Product Backlogs and five Product Owners.

NEW QUESTION 79
During Sprint Planning, the Definition of Done will help the Development Team forecast the amount of work, selected from the Product Backlog, deemed feasible to make ‘done’ by the end of the Sprint.
Which two items best describes what ‘done’ means? (Choose two.)

All the work needed to prepare the Increment for User Acceptance Testing.

All the work needed to prepare the Increment for Integration Testing.

Having an Increment of working software that is potentially releasable to the end users.

All the work performed as defined in the Definition of Done.

All the work completed within the current skills and expertise in the Development Team.

NEW QUESTION 80
Stakeholders are only allowed to meet with the Scrum Team at Sprint Review.

True

False

NEW QUESTION 81
At the fifth Sprint Retrospective, the Product Owner mentions that he is surprised about the amount of technical debt that has built up in the system and that the product is not able to support an adequate number of users.
Peter, the Product Owner, is upset that the product will need several more Sprints to address the scalability issues in order to meet his expectations.
What factors may have led to this?

The Scrum Team has not used the past Sprint Retrospectives effectively to inspect and adapt.

The Development Team has not been paying enough attention to technical quality.

The Development Team and the Product Owner are not having conversations around technical debt.

The Scrum Master has not ensured that the Scrum Team is transparent.

All of the above.

None of the above.

NEW QUESTION 82
How should multiple Scrum Teams, working from the same Product Backlog, select the Product Backlog items their teams plan to work on?

The Product Owner will present the work and the Development Teams will select the items they will work on.

The Product Owner creates separate Product Backlogs for each Development Team.

Each Scrum Team would select an equal number of items.

The Product Owner assigns the work to each team.

The Scrum Team with the highest productivity will select the items first.

NEW QUESTION 83
Which of the following is required in Scrum?

Sprint Retrospective

All Development Team members answering the three Question:s at the Daily Scrum

Sprint Burndown Chart

User Stories

All of the above

NEW QUESTION 84
During the Sprint, the Development Team realizes they might not be able to finish all of the items in the Sprint Backlog.
What should happen?

Product Backlog items are either ‘done’ or ‘not done.’ This helps with transparency, reduces complexity and allows for improved empiricism.

Continue Sprinting until the work is complete and redefine a new Sprint time-box based on the results of the current Sprint.

The Sprint length holds and the Development Team continuously learns what is actually possible to do within the time-box.

NEW QUESTION 85
A Scrum Master teaches those who are interested in the Development Team’s progress that progress in Scrum comes from inspecting an Increment at the Sprint Review.

True

False

NEW QUESTION 86
What would likely happen if management only changed the organization’s current terminology to fit Scrum without the proper understanding and support of Scrum as defined in the Scrum Guide?

Very little change will happen as the vocabulary in Scrum is specifically defined for implementing Scrum.

The organization may not realize the real benefits of Scrum as there would be no real change on the way the teams work.

Organizations may feel less stressed as the behaviors would remain familiar to management.

All answers apply.

NEW QUESTION 87
When technical debt occurs, the system will become more unstable as development progresses and code is added resulting in future work being slowed down.

True

False

NEW QUESTION 88
Peter is a new Product Owner on a newly formed Scrum Team. Peter has projected a product completion date based on an estimated velocity of 21 completed points per Sprint. After the first 3 Sprints, the team has determined that their maximum velocity is 15 points and they are unable to create shippable increments at the end of each Sprint.
What is the best way to proceed?

The Sprints have failed to produce shippable Increments there for opportunities to inspect and adapt is lost. The Scrum Master would encourage the organization to add more team members in order to increase the team’s capacity.

The Scrum Master would coach the team on improving their estimations and commitment to completing the Sprint Backlog.

Extend the Sprint in order to complete the Sprint Backlog items.

Inform Peter that the projected completion date is not correct. The Development team would estimate the remaining work to produce a shippable Increment and suggest making it “Done” before working on new features. Based on empirical data, Peter can adjust the completion date and decide how to continue.

NEW QUESTION 89
Individual Development Team members have been approaching Steven, the Scrum Master, to complain about Chris. Chris has the most experience on the system they are building. He often Question:s the choices team members make in design and architecture making them feel bad.
What are two good ways for Steven to address this problem? (Choose two.)

Steven observes whether this topic is raised at the Sprint Retrospective. If not, then he checks with the team on how comfortable they are with the way the design and architecture is being handled.

Steven suggests facilitating a session with the full team to help resolve the issue.

Steven tells the concerned members that Chris’ opinions should be respected as he has the most experience and understands what is best for long term sustainability.

Steven shares his concerns with Chris and the impact on the other team members and that he should be a team player.

Steven takes the time between Sprints to organize a team building session to build a stronger relationship.
