Read the first 7 Agile & Hybrid Methodologies flashcards as text

  1. In Extreme Programming (XP), which practice involves two programmers working together at one workstation to write code?

    Answer: Pair Programming

    Pair Programming is an XP practice where two developers collaborate at a single workstation, improving code quality and knowledge sharing.

  2. When should a project team consider using a hybrid approach instead of pure Agile?

    Answer: When some deliverables are well-defined while others need iterative exploration

    A hybrid approach is appropriate when a project has both stable, well-defined components (suitable for predictive) and uncertain components (suitable for Agile).

  3. What is the primary purpose of a Definition of Done (DoD) in Agile?

    Answer: To provide a shared understanding of what makes a backlog item complete and releasable

    The Definition of Done is a shared checklist ensuring everyone agrees on when a work item is truly complete and meets quality standards.

  4. An Agile team's Sprint Retrospective reveals that team members are frequently interrupted by stakeholders during the Sprint. Which action is MOST appropriate?

    Answer: Establish a clear protocol for managing stakeholder communication during Sprints

    Establishing communication protocols protects the team's focus while keeping stakeholders engaged appropriately.

  5. In the context of CAPM and PMI's approach, which document serves a similar purpose to an Agile Product Backlog in a predictive project?

    Answer: Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)

    The WBS in predictive projects decomposes all project work similar to how a Product Backlog lists all work items in Agile projects.

  6. Which Agile metric helps a team visualize remaining work over time within a Sprint?

    Answer: Sprint burndown chart

    A Sprint burndown chart plots remaining work (story points or tasks) against time, showing progress within a Sprint.

  7. A product owner adds a high-priority item to the Product Backlog during a Sprint. What should the Scrum team do?

    Answer: Note the item in the Product Backlog for consideration in the next Sprint Planning

    New backlog items should be added to the Product Backlog and prioritized for future sprints to protect the current Sprint's integrity.
