PSM 2 2024 | 141 Questions and Correct
Answers, 100% Correct. Updated Fall
2024/2025.
A developer in the team you're Scrum Master for is taking up most of the daily Scrum time to talk about
what's keeping him busy. What two options do you best apply to solve this?

A.
Bring a timer to limit the time every member can talk during standup
B.
Bring a token for team members to pass around only people holding the token may talk
C.
Coach the team to find a solution to this issue
D.
Talk one-on-one with the developer and help them see the impact they are having on the daily Scrum
E.
Go to the HR manager and have the team member removed

C, D

The team and it's members must be coached to solve problems together and be self-organizing. This
includes coaching individual members to be mindful of their team.

Your company has notified the stakeholders that they will be delivering the first release of a new product
within ten Sprints. On the seventh Sprint, the Scrum Team discovers that they will not be able to include
all of the expected features within the first release.
The Product Owner believes if they remove some items from the Definition of Done they will be able to
accelerate the development process. The Development Team objects to this idea as it will lead to
technical debt.
As a Scrum Master, what would be the best two ways to explain to the Product Owner the impact of
technical debt?
(Choose two.)

A.
As long as there is still technical debt in the current release, feature development for the next release
cannot be started. The Product Owner must first agree to this impact before allowing changes to the
Definition of Done.
B.
Reducing the Definition of Done will introduce unknown errors as development progresses

B, C

,Reducing the Definition of Done will introduce unknown errors as development progresses and
functionality is added. It also creates false assumptions about the actual state of the system.
"Extra Sprints" are not allocated in Scrum to account for technical debt. Each Sprint should create a
POTENTIALLY releasable Increment.

Part of the team's Definition of "Done" requires creating or updating technical documentation in order to
maintain the product and/or features in the future. The team's technical writer will be on vacation
during the Sprint.
What should you do?

A.
Encourage the technical writers from other teams to form a specialized team to organize and plan the
work for multiple teams.
B.
The Development Team members will write it as they are still responsible for creating the documentation
to make the Increment done in conformance with their Definition of "Done."
C.
Wait until the technical writer returns before continuing with related items.
D.
Complete all development work first while adding technical documentation to the Product Backlog to be
done in a subsequent Sprint.

B.
The Development Team members will write it as they are still responsible for creating the documentation
to make the Increment done in conformance with their Definition of "Done."

The Development Team is cross-functional and has all of the skills needed to deliver an Increment in
accordance with their Definition of Done.

A new Product Owner has joined an existing Scrum Team that has been working together for eight
Sprints.
The Development Team has grown to have a good understanding of the functionality and business for
the product they have been building. The Product Owner, being new to the company, is unsure about his
responsibilities.
As a Scrum Master explain what two acceptable ways of helping the Product Owner would be.
(Choose two.)

A.
You advise the Product Owner to start building a good relationship with the stakeholders of the product.
Ongoing interaction with them is important to regularly align with changing organizational or market
expectations. The Product Owner is also expected to invite the right stakeholders to the Sprint Review
meeting.
B.
You inform the Product Owner that, in today's highly competitive markets, it is important that the
Development Team is updated on changing business priorities on a daily basis. Th

,A, D

The Product Owner is the direct line of communication with the stakeholders. The PO must
communicate with them to understand the business value of the Product. The PO can then communicate
the value to the Development Team and build the Product Backlog.
C is incorrect because there is no "analysis phase" in Scrum.

What is management's role in Scrum?

A.
To provide the necessary environment and support needed as defined by the Scrum Guide by providing
insights and resources that help the Scrum Teams continue moving forward.
B.
Identifying and removing people that are performing poorly.
C.
Monitoring skill levels of the Development Team.
D.
Monitoring the Development Team's velocity.

A.
To provide the necessary environment and support needed as defined by the Scrum Guide by providing
insights and resources that help the Scrum Teams continue moving forward.

By the end of the Sprint, a Product Backlog item in the Sprint Backlog does not meet the team's
Definition of Done. What two things should happen with the item?
(Choose two.)

A.
It will be inspected at the Sprint Review and if it is acceptable by the stakeholders then include it in the
Increment.
B.
Do not include the item in the Increment for the Sprint.
C.
Split the item and add the estimation of the completed work to the current Sprint so not to impact the
velocity and add the "undone" work to the next Sprint
D.
Estimate the remaining work needed to make it "done" and add it to the Product Backlog for the Product
Owner to decide what to do with it.

B, D

The item does not meet the Definition of Done, so the team can't add it to the Increment. The remaining
work is to be added back into the Product Backlog to be re-estimated.

Peter, a Project Manager, has raised concerns about your Scrum Team's productivity and progress
towards the objectives. Which is the best way to respond to Peter's concerns?

, A.
Share the Product Backlog, the projections towards the release dates and ensure that Peter has access.
B.
Show the Profit & Loss (P&L) report.
C.
Share the current impediments.
D.
Share the last stakeholder status report prepared by the Scrum Master.

A.
Share the Product Backlog, the projections towards the release dates and ensure that Peter has access.

The Product Backlog is an artifact and is transparent so that it can be inspected and adapted as needed.

A Scrum Master is not only a servant-leader to the Scrum Team and organization, it's also considered a
management position.

(Choose three.)

A.

B.
The way Scrum is understood and enacted within the organization.
C.
Managing the capacity and utilization of each Development Team member.
D.
Managing the process in which Scrum is applied.
E.

F.

B, D, F

Scrum Masters serve the organization and the team by ensuring effective application of Scrum. They
remove impediments that limits the team's productivity or Scrum application.
