CDA Product Backlog & Requirements Management 2

Question 1

In DA, which role is primarily accountable for ensuring the product backlog reflects stakeholder needs and is ordered by value?

Accepted Answer

Product Owner

Answer

The Product Owner in DA is accountable for the product backlog, including its content, availability, and ordering by business value.

Question 2

When a DA team chooses to use a 'continuous flow' lifecycle, how are backlog items typically introduced into the workflow?

Accepted Answer

As capacity allows, without fixed iterations

Answer

In a continuous flow lifecycle, work items flow into the system as capacity becomes available rather than being batched into fixed iterations.

Question 3

A DA team discovers that two backlog items have conflicting acceptance criteria. What is the recommended first step?

Accepted Answer

Engage stakeholders to clarify and resolve the conflict

Answer

DA emphasizes collaborating with stakeholders to resolve ambiguity and conflicts in requirements before making unilateral decisions.

Question 4

Which DA concept describes the practice of keeping backlog items at the appropriate level of detail — detailed for near-term work, vague for distant work?

Accepted Answer

Just-in-time elaboration

Answer

Just-in-time (JIT) elaboration means detailing requirements only when they are close to being worked on, avoiding premature over-specification.

Question 5

In DAD, what is the purpose of the 'Inception' phase as it relates to the product backlog?

Accepted Answer

To establish an initial backlog and a shared understanding of the solution vision

Answer

During Inception, teams create an initial, high-level backlog and align on the solution vision to guide subsequent Construction iterations.
