How should an agile project leader interact with the product owner?

• Conduct regular one-on-one meetings to review development features and trace them back to the product roadmap.
• Ensure that they attend regular sprint meetings to provide product-feature feedback.
• Share any new versions of the project plan with them, including updated statuses for tasks and project milestones.
• Schedule meetings where they can provide team direction regarding new-feature priorities and upcoming sprints.

During a sprint review, the product owner identifies a required improvement for a feature's user interface (Ul) delivered during the sprint. What should the product owner do next?

• Create a user story for this new improvement and put it in the product backlog for prioritization and validation by the customer.
• Create a user story for this new improvement and prioritize it for the next sprint.
• Document it as a requirement creep.
• Ask the team to take on additional story points to improve the Ul.

During iteration planning, it was determined that an epic should be decomposed. What was the determining factor?

• Size and priority
• Minimum marketable features
• Release plan
• Sprint mapping

Midway through a sprint the scrum master identifies that reassigning a certain task could help the team meet its sprint goals. What should the scrum master do next?

• Alert the team that sprint goals might not be met and create an alternative plan
• Obtain team buy-in to perform modifications to the sprint backlog
• Have the sprint proceed as planned
• Ask the team to decide if the task should be reassigned

Following an upgrade, a software support team is overwhelmed by the number of tickets being submitted by end users. The team's manager is pushing the team to "work smart" by focusing on activities that deliver the most value in the least amount of time.What should the team do?

• Work longer hours to complete more of the support backlog.
• Work support tickets in the order in which they were received.
• Place tickets on hold until the team completes an analysis of the backlog to identify and resolve systemic issues.
• Add members to the support team.

What should the agile practitioner know about tracking velocity?

• A team with an average velocity of 50 is twice as efficient as a team with an average velocity of 25.
• A team with an average velocity of 50 is equally as efficient as a team with an average velocity of 25.
• A team that consistently meets its planned velocity is more efficient than a team that consistentlyexceeds its planned velocity.
• A team that consistently meets its planned velocity is less efficient than a team that constantly exceeds its planned velocity.

A member of the development team is working on a prioritized non-functional requirement involving integrating with a 3rd party system This integration has not been done before on the project.What should the project leader suggest?

• Develop and document a detailed architectural design peer review with the development team, and implement/test
• Develop the functional requirements of the solution first before any non-functional requirement, as they provide more customer value.
• Discuss the integration requirement with the product owner and negotiate it to be lower on the backlog to focus on the minimal marketable feature
• Develop and test the implementation approach and demonstrate it at the next sprint review to collect feedback.

Toward the end of a project, the product owner discovers that the project has a high probability of failure due to a critical feature not functioning as expected. What should the product owner do?

• Terminate the project to cut losses.
• Review possible options and make an informed decision to cut losses based on delivered business value.
• Bring in experts to increase the probability of success.
• Continue the project, release the product without the failing feature, and fix the feature in a subsequent release.

The product owner of an agile project is frustrated because the team is unable to deliver as many features as expected. The product owner asks the team to reduce test-automation levels, since the quality assurance team will test the product at project completion. The product owner expects that more features will be delivered in each iteration using this approachWhat should the agile practitioner do?

• Ask the opinion of key stakeholders and the client to ensure the correct approach is being used
• Work with the team to use this approach and request a quality assurance iteration after every three iterations
• Propose to completely eliminate test automation, since this is a quality assurance function
• Suggest merging the quality assurance and delivery teams to enhance each iteration's test- automation levels and reduce redundancy

During its first sprint a new scrum team realizes that it has insufficient team members with testautomation skills to effectively complete its stories. What should the team do?

• Cross-tram some members in the automation framework to broaden their capacity with that skill
• Ask the product owner to add team members to boost this particular skill set
• Send a member to automation framework training when funds are available
• Avoid using test automation by swarming on the testing tasks and using manual testing
