PSPO 1 FINAL EXAM ACTUAL 2026 QUESTIONS AND
SOLUTIONS RATED A+
✔✔Who has responsibility for the Product Backlog Management? - ✔✔The Product
Owner
The Product Owner is accountable for maximizing the value of the product resulting
from the work of the Scrum Team. How this is done may vary widely across
organizations, Scrum Teams, and individuals. The Product Owner is also accountable
for effective Product Backlog management.
✔✔Choose the correct order of items in the Product Backlog? - ✔✔At the Product
Owner's discretion but usually the less valuable and most unclear items at the bottom
✔✔What do the Developers have sole responsibility for? - ✔✔The sprint backlog
Only the Development Team should change the Sprint Backlog during a Sprint.
✔✔The Sprint Backlog - ✔✔is a plan by and for the Developers. It is a highly visible,
real-time picture of the work that the Developers plan to accomplish during the Sprint in
order to achieve the Sprint Goal. Consequently, the Sprint Backlog is updated
throughout the Sprint as more is learned. It should have enough detail that they can
inspect their progress in the Daily Scrum.
✔✔The Scrum Guide recommends increasing the Daily Scrum timebox dependant on
the size of the Scrum Team. The more Developers the more time will be needed. -
✔✔False
Explanation
The Daily Scrum is a 15-minute timeboxed event for a Scrum Team of any size.
✔✔How is a "Developer" defined in the context of Scrum? Select the best option. -
✔✔Anyone that gets value from Scrum
As Scrum's use spreads, developers, researchers, analysts, scientists, and other
specialists do the work. We use the word "developers" in Scrum not to exclude, but to
simplify. If you get value from Scrum, consider yourself included.
"Developers, researchers, analysts and scientists" is not correct on because this is not
an exhaustive list
✔✔What are the three pillars that uphold every implementation of empirical process
control? - ✔✔Three pillars uphold every implementation of empirical process control:
transparency, inspection, and adaptation.
, Scrum is founded on empirical process control theory, or empiricism. Empiricism
asserts that knowledge comes from experience and making decisions based on what is
known.
✔✔The Scrum Team members are: - ✔✔Developers, The Product Owner, the Scrum
Master
✔✔Who is responsible for the creation of the Definition of "Done"? - ✔✔The Scrum
Team
If the Definition of Done for an increment is part of the standards of the organization, all
Scrum Teams must follow it as a minimum. If it is not an organizational standard, the
Scrum Team must create a Definition of Done appropriate for the product.
✔✔Does the Daily Scrum help to eliminate the need for additional meetings. - ✔✔Yes
Daily Scrums improve communications, identify impediments, promote quick decision-
making, and consequently eliminate the need for other meetings.
✔✔Who in the Scrum team is responsible for monitoring progress toward high-level
goals? - ✔✔The Product Owner tracks total work remaining at least every Sprint
Review. The Product Owner compares this amount with work remaining at previous
Sprint Reviews to assess progress toward completing projected work by the desired
time for the goal. This information is made transparent to all stakeholders.
✔✔Select the three most applicable items for the Definition of Done - ✔✔DoD ensures
artifact transparency
Keeps quality standards consistent through multiple development teams
DoD is used to assess when work is complete on the product increment
✔✔What are three purposes for the Daily Scrum? - ✔✔To inspect progress toward the
sprint goal
To adjust the upcoming planned work
To adapt the Sprint Backlog as necessary
✔✔Who is responsible for projecting the likelihood of achieving the Sprint Goal by
tracking the total work remaining in the Sprint Backlog at every Daily Scrum? - ✔✔The
developers
✔✔True or false, the Scrum Master is focused primarily on the Scrum Team and usually
does not care about those outside the Scrum Team. - ✔✔False
