negotitation(mostly)

3. In sprint review meeting, the end users of the product gave a feedback to a user story jjust
completed in the sprint . This leads to few changes to the user story. How should the team

the end of the sprint to analyse how the sprint was.

5. The four basic activities that are performed in extreme programming - designing coding
testing-> - listening

Agile Planning and estimation

1. One of the manager from client s end is auditing the Infosys way of executing an agile
project. He found out that out of 4 planned sprints in the release the detailed plan is
available only for first sprint in a release the detailed plan Is only available for the first
sprint which is ongoing and high level plans are available for remaining three sprints he
raises the concern around the same and questions one of the agile team member on why
detailed plans for other sprints are not available. As a team member of this agile project
what would be your suitable response to the client manager in this situation - Explain him
that detailed sprint plan would be done only at respective sprint planning stage.

2. During the estimation meeting in case there is no agreement regarding the estimation of a
given story among the team members, the following action can be taken - any one or more
of the above options (mostly)

3. Who determines HOW much of the product backlog items can be delivered in the upcoming
sprint – product owner – mandates it in requirements planning meeting

4. Which of the following statement is true about sprint planning meeting – sprint planning
meeting is divided into 2 parts ie first part to discuss what needs to be delivered and
second part is to discuss how it needs to be delivered

5. While estimating the effort needed to complete an important user story, there are multiple
views expressed by various members as per a team member it will take 5 days of effort
 where as a subject matter expert who has worked on a similar projects in past thinks that
three days of effort should be sufficient. The scrum master says that it will take four days.
Product owner wishes the story to be completed in one day because of its urgency whose
estimate should be considered for sprint planning towards estimated effort-subject matter
expert - as he/she has complete knowledge of similar stories(mostly doubtful)

Softskill

1. Which of the following softskills are important while working in agile projects – analytical
ability, listening and questioning, pro-activeness

2. Which of the following is recommended to be followed by agile team towards development

of user stories each day during sprint execution – by completeing daily stand up for 15 mins
and 9 hrs user story development as per sprint backlog(check once 90% correct)

3. While decomposing userstories into task which of the following is considered as a good
practice by an individual to identify the right task to complete the user story – take imputs
from the other team members.

4. What softskills should the team posses to avoid delays during the sprint execution – all of
the above

5. The agile project has an upcoming release planned for months of duration and team is
expected to deliver 25 user stories prioritized by the product owner. At the end of release
the team has delivered 30 user stories. The additional 5 user stories were not discussed with
the product owner. When the product owner was reviving the final release output for
acceptance, he mentioned that the extra functionality that the team has developed was not
needed and would discard from the product features. How could have the team avoided
developing the extra features (or user stories) which were not needed by the product owner
- all the team members must participate in the Release planning meeting and provide their
inputs on the interpretations and implementation of the required features.
