  1. Which of the following BEST describes the role of the Scrum Master in an organization adopting agile for the first time?

    Answer: Coaching the team and organization on agile practices and values

    The Scrum Master serves as a coach and change agent, helping teams and the organization understand and adopt agile principles.

  2. A project manager working in a hybrid environment needs to decide which work packages to deliver using agile and which using predictive methods. What factor should drive this decision?

    Answer: The level of requirements uncertainty and rate of change for each work package

    Work with high uncertainty and changing requirements benefits from agile, while stable, well-defined work suits predictive approaches.

  3. What is the primary output of a Sprint Planning event?

    Answer: Servant leadership

    Servant leadership, which prioritizes the team's needs and removes impediments, is the recommended style for agile environments.

  5. A team using the Cynefin framework encounters a problem with no clear cause-and-effect relationship and multiple competing hypotheses. Which domain does this situation fall into?

    Answer: Complex

    The Complex domain is characterized by unknown unknowns and emergent solutions, requiring experimentation rather than analysis.

  6. A development team is practicing continuous integration (CI). What is the MOST important discipline supporting CI?

    Answer: Committing code to the main branch at least once per day

    Frequent code commits — at least daily — are essential so that integration problems are detected and resolved quickly.

  7. An agile team's product owner is frequently unavailable for backlog refinement and sprint reviews. What is the LIKELY impact?

    Answer: The team will struggle with unclear priorities and misaligned deliverables

    An unavailable Product Owner leads to unclear priorities, misalignment with business needs, and wasted development effort.
