1 Title: Points: Percentage: Duration: Date started: Date finished: Product Owner Open 14 out of % 00:09:38 Sat 6th Aug :11am Sat 6th Aug :21am Congratulations! Your score on the Product Owner Open assessment demonstrates you know some Product Owner basics. Scrum on, Ken Schwaber Correctly answered Incorrectly answered Missed correct multiple choice option Question 1 of 15 The Development Team finds out during the Sprint that they aren't likely to build everything they forecasted. What would you expect a Product Owner to do? Correct answer: You chose: Cancel the Sprint. Change the Sprint Goal. Re-work the selected Product Backlog items with the Development Team to meet the Sprint Goal. Skip Product Backlog refinement activities. E) Inform management that more resources are needed. 1/9
2 During the Sprint scope may be clarified and re-negotiated between the Product Owner and Development Team as more is learned. Question 2 of 15 Which description best fits the role of the Product Owner? Correct answer: You chose: Project Manager 2.0 Value Maximizer Requirements Collector Scope Protector E) Chief Analyst The Product Owner is responsible for maximizing the value of the product. How this is done will vary widely. Question 3 of 15 A first Sprint can start before the Product Owner has a complete and exhaustive Product Backlog in place. Correct answer: You chose: True False A first Sprint requires no more than a Product Owner, a team, and enough ideas to potentially complete a 2/9
3 full Sprint. Question 4 of 15 The Product Owner manages the Product Backlog. Who is accountable for estimating the effort to complete the Product Backlog items? Correct answer: You chose: The Development Team. As a collective, they have a complete view of the work needed to transform Product Backlog items into Increments of product. The PMO. They have all the history on projects delivered, and this enables the IT department to make delivery commitments. The Product Owner. The Product Owner is required to commit on delivery to the users and the stakeholders. The Development Team is responsible for all estimates. The people who will perform the work make the final estimate. Question 5 of 15 What is the Product Owner accountable for in Scrum? Correct answer: You chose: Describing an Increment at the Sprint Planning and make sure that the Development Team delivers it by the end of the Sprint Creating and sustaining a Product Backlog that maximizes value and represents the needs of the stakeholders Refining the top level Product Backlog items until they are ready to be handed over to the Development Team Writing the User Stories so they are understandable to stakeholders 3/9
4 The Product Owner is responsible for maximizing the value of the product and the work of the Development Team. The primary tool to do so is the Product Backlog. Question 6 of 15 What two phrases best describe the relationship of the Product Owner and the Development Team? Correct answer: You chose: E) They should work apart as much as possible in order to keep the concerns of business and technology separated. They collaborate often so the Product Owner can make informed decisions in balancing effort and value of Product Backlog items. The Product Owner should be with the Development Team full-time to grow a deep understanding of the technology being used. They collaborate often so the Development Team builds Increments keeping end-user and stakeholder concerns in mind. They should share no more than the Sprint Planning and the Sprint Review meeting. The Product owner clearly expresses Product Backlog items, ensuring the Development Team understands items in the Product Backlog to the level needed for developing them and creating the value the Product Owner envisions. Scope may be re-negotiated if the effort grows much higher than anticipated. Question 7 of 15 The process of regular inspection and adaptation employs knowledgeable and skilled inspectors. What are two ways in which the Product Owner takes the lead in the inspection process? Correct answer: You chose: At the Sprint Review the Product Owner shares the current state of Product Backlog, which, combined with the inspection of the Increment, leads to an updated Product Backlog. At the Daily Scrum the Product Owner inspects the Sprint burn-down for progress towards a complete Increment and re-planning the team's work. At the end of Sprint Planning the Product Owner verifies the Sprint Backlog for 4/9
5 At the end of Sprint Planning the Product Owner verifies the Sprint Backlog for completeness in order to allow the Sprint to start. The Product Owner invites stakeholders to the Sprint Review to learn how the current state of the marketplace influences what is the most valuable thing to do next. Scrum users must frequently inspect Scrum artifacts and progress to detect undesirable variances. The primary tool for the Product Owner to uphold transparency is the Product Backlog. Product Backlog is a living artifact that is actively maintained and updated to reflect reality. At the Sprint Review, attendees collaborate on the next things that could be done to optimize value, which is processed into an updated Product Backlog. Question 8 of 15 A Product Owner is essentially the same thing as a traditional Project Manager? Correct answer: You chose: True False A traditional project manager is responsible for all aspects of a project; costs, resources, execution, release, planning, capacity. Scrum is a framework for complex product development, regardless of whether the work is organized in projects. The Product Owner is responsible for maximizing the value of the product and the work performed, a responsibility that is complemented by the specific accountabilities of the Development Team and the Scrum Master. Question 9 of 15 Which two statements explain why the definition of "Done" is important to the Product Owner? Correct answer: You chose: It assures the Increment reviewed at the Sprint review is usable so the Product Owner may choose to release it. It helps the Product Owner track the open work during a Sprint. 5/9
6 It helps the Product Owner track the open work during a Sprint. It creates transparency regarding progress within the Scrum Team. It identifies undone work that can be addressed in a separate Sprint. All Scrum Team members must have a shared understanding of what it means for work to be complete, to ensure transparency. This is the definition of "Done" for the Scrum Team and is used to assess when work is complete on the product Increment. The Increment reviewed at the Sprint Review must be useable, so a Product Owner may choose to immediately release it. Question 10 of 15 A Product Owner is entitled to postpone the start of a new Sprint after the conclusion of a previous Sprint for the following reason: Correct answer: You chose: Not enough Product Backlog items are "Ready". The Product Owner has not identified a Sprint Goal. There is no acceptable reason. A new Sprint starts immediately after the conclusion of the previous Sprint. The QA department needs more time to make the previous Increment "Done". E) The stakeholders are not happy with the value produced in the previous Sprint. A new Sprint starts immediately after the conclusion of the previous Sprint. Question 11 of 15 What pre-conditions must be fulfilled in order to allow Sprint Planning to begin? Correct answer: F) You chose: F) A fully refined Product Backlog 6/9
7 Formal budget approval to conduct another Sprint A clear and non-negotiable Sprint Goal A clear but negotiable business objective for the Sprint E) F) Enough "Ready" Product Backlog to fill the Sprint There are no such pre-conditions Sprint Planning serves to plan the work to be performed in the Sprint. This plan is created by the collaborative work of the entire Scrum Team. Sprint Planning is time-boxed to a maximum of eight hours for a one-month Sprint. What can be achieved in this time-box may be influenced by additional practices that are however not prescribed by Scrum. Question 12 of 15 What two things should be done if the Product Owner is unavailable? Correct answer: You chose: Within the Sprint, the Development Team makes the best decisions possible to assure progress toward the Sprint Goal, re-aligning with the Product Owner once he/she is available again. There should be a Product Owner team to allow a different person from that team to instantly take over the role of Product Owner. In a permanent state of unavailability, a new Product Owner needs to be appointed. Development efforts without a Product Owner are not employing Scrum. Development of functional requirements stops until the Product Owner is available again. The Scrum framework consists of Scrum Teams and their associated roles, events, artifacts, and rules. Each component within the framework serves a specific purpose and is essential to Scrum's success and usage. The Scrum Team consists of a Product Owner, the Development Team, and a Scrum Master. The Product Owner is responsible for maximizing the value of the product and the work of the Development Team. In the absence of a Product Owner, the latter accountability is not performed. Question 13 of /9
8 In order to make investment decisions, the Product Owner is likely to look at the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of the product being built. What costs will a Product Owner take into account? Correct answer: You chose: The money spent on development of the product, often a fixed cost per Sprint multiplied by the Sprints required All investments required to conceive, develop, operate and maintain the product The accumulated cost over the earned value of the product The owner of a product is not only accountable for development and release of a product, but also the cost of maintaining and operating the product. If a person 'owns' the product, he/she can be expected to be responsible for the complete lifecycle of a product. Question 14 of 15 To what extent does technical debt limit the value a Product Owner can get from a product? Select two answers. Correct answer: You chose: Technical debt does not influence the delivery of value. Technical debt causes a greater percentage of the product's budget to be spent on maintenance of the product. Technical debt is not a Product Owner concern, because technical debt is only an issue for the Development Team. The velocity at which new functionality can be created is reduced when you have technical debt. You did not select all available correct options. Points: 0 out of 1 Question 15 of 15 What is a Product Backlog? 8/9
9 Correct answer: You chose: It is a living artifact of product requirements that exists and evolves as long as a product exists. It is a formally approved list of requirements to be implemented over a set period. It is a detailed list of functionality from which the Development Team draws items, to be complemented by a separate Technology Backlog managed by the Development Team. It is a list of references to Use Case documents that are stored in a central repository. The references should be viewable and clickable by anybody to enhance transparency. The Product Backlog is an ordered list of everything that might be needed in the product and is the single source of requirements for any changes to be made to the product. The Product Backlog evolves as the product and the environment in which it will be used evolves. Higher ordered Product Backlog items are usually clearer and more detailed than lower ordered ones. As long as a product exists, its Product Backlog also exists. 9/9
