Use these 15 flashcards to study the Scrum Guide and become a Product Owner!
Question 1. True or false? The value delivered by a product can only be determined by revenue.
Answer: False.
Reasoning: Value is likely to vary across products and organizations. Thus can not be only determined
by revenue.
Question 2. True or false? Read these two phrases and determine if they correctly describe the
relationship between the Product Owner and the Development Team.
The Product Owner and the Development Team collaborate often so the Product Owner can
make informed decisions in balancing effort and value of Product Backlog items.
The Product Owner and the Development Team collaborate often so the Development Team
builds Increments.
Answer: both are true.
Reasoning: 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 (building increments and keeping end-user in mind).
The scope may be re-negotiated if the effort grows much higher than anticipated (balancing effort
and value). A good collaboration between the Product Owner and the Development Team is essential
in successful scrum.
Question 3. Open question. What things should be done if the Product Owner is unavailable?
Distinguish between temporary and permanently unavailability of the Product Owner.
Answer:
Temporarily unavailable: within a Sprint, the Development Team makes the best decisions
possible to progress toward the Sprint Goal. Once the Product Owner is back, they can re-
align.
Permanently unavailable: in a permanent state of unavailability, a new Product Owner needs
to be appointed. Without a Product Owner you can not employ Scrum.
Reasoning: The Scrum framework consists of Scrum Teams and their roles, events, artifacts, and rules
(Product Owner, the Development Team, and a Scrum Master). Each component within the
framework serves a specific purpose and is essential to the Scrum Framework. The Product Owner is
responsible for maximizing the value of the product and the work of the Development Team.
Question 4. Open question. 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 here?
Answer: All (costs) investments to conceive, develop, operate and maintain the product. Make sure
to think about the complete lifecycle.
