CERTIFICATION 2024 NEWEST EXAM 150 QUESTIONS
AND CORRECT ANSWERS|ALREADY GRADED A+
What is SAFe and what does it stand for? - ANSWER: Scaled Agile Framework- a
freely revealed knowledge base of integrated, proven patterns for enterprise Lean-
Agile development. It synchronizes alignment, collaboration, and delivery for larger
numbers of teams.
Describe an Agile Team - ANSWER: --Empowered, self-organizing, self-managing,
cross-functional team
--Delivers valuable, tested, working system every 2 weeks
--Uses a team framework which combines the best of Scrum project management,
XP-inspired technical practices and Kanban for flow
Describe an Agile Team of Teams - ANSWER: --Self-organizing, self-managing, team
of agile teams
--Delivers working, tested full system increments every 2 weeks
--Operates with Vision, architecture and UX guidance
--Common iteration lengths and estimating
--Face-to-face planning for collaboration, alignment, and adaptation
4 SAFE core values (BAPT) - ANSWER: --Built-In Quality
--Alignment
--Program Execution
--Transparency
House of Lean (RIFR) - ANSWER: --Respect for people and culture
--Innovation
--Flow
--Relentless improvement
(Value is the "roof" and Leadership is the "foundation")
Agile Manifesto - ANSWER: --Individuals and interactions OVER processes and tool
--Working software OVER comprehensive documentation
--Customer collaboration OVER contract negotiation
--Responding to change OVER following a plan
Excessive details of the Agile Manifesto - ANSWER: --Satisfy customer through
early/continuous delivery of valuable software
--Welcome changing requirements
--Deliver working software frequently (2 weeks/months)
--Business people and developers work together daily
--Build projects around motivated individuals, provide the environment and support
they need, and trust them
--Face-to-face conversation is the best method of communication
,--Working software is the primary measure of progress
--Sustainable development- sponsors, developers, and users able to maintain
constant pace
--Continuous attention to technical excellence and good design enhances agility
--Simplicity- maximizing amount of work not done
--The best designs emerge from self-organizing teams
--Reflect on team effectiveness
Describe how Agile impacts development (vs waterfall) - ANSWER: Agile turns
development upside-down
--Waterfall is plan driven- constrained by requirements, and creates cost/schedule
estimates
--Agile is value and quality driven (the Vision)- constrained by cost and schedule, and
creates feature estimates
--Agile Teams show that DATES matter and they MEET their commitments
--Business Owners understand how PRIORITIES matter
--Fix QUALITY, not scope
- ANSWER: Portfolio EPICS
Enabler EPIC
Business EPIC
ValueStream EPICS
Programm EPIC
Zeitliche Einschränkung EPIC - ANSWER: geht über mehrere Value Streams oder
geht über mehrere PIs
Capability - ANSWER: passt in ein PI,
geht über versch. Release Trains
Feature - ANSWER: Passt in ein PI
(Aus Epic entstanden)
Story - ANSWER: Passt in einen Sprint
(Aus Features entstanden)
WSJF - ANSWER: Weighted Shortest Job First.

, Welche Elemente des SAFE sind auf allen Ebenen vorhanden? - ANSWER: Backlog,
Vision, Roadmap, Metrics, Milesstones/Releases
Spalten des Kanban Systems auf Portfolio Level - ANSWER: Funnel,
Review,
Analysis,
Portfolio Backlog,
Implementation,
Done
Was ist ein Operational Value Stream - ANSWER: ValueStream mit Features, die den
Wert zum Kunden liefert
Was ist ein Development Value Stream - ANSWER: ValueStream mit Features, die
den Wert entwickeln
Agile Architecture - ANSWER: Agile architecture is a set of values and practices that
support the active evolution of the design and
architecture of a system, concurrent with the implementation of new business
functionality. With this
approach, the architecture of a system, even a large one, evolves over time while
simultaneously
supporting the needs of current users. This avoids Big Up-Front Design (BUFD) and
the starting and
stopping of stage-gated methods.
Agile Release Train - ANSWER: The Agile Release Train is a long-lived team of Agile
Teams, typically consisting of 50 - 125 individuals.
The ART aligns teams to a common mission and provides for a regular cadence for
planning,
development, and retrospective. Trains provide continuous product development
flow and each train
has the dedicated resources necessary to continuously define, build, and test
valuable and evaluateable
capabilities every two weeks.
Agile Teams - ANSWER: The Agile Team is a cross-functional group of five to nine
individuals who have the ability and
authority to define, build, and test solution value—all in a short-iteration timebox.
The team includes
the individuals necessary to successfully deliver this value, supported by specialists
where applicable.
Architectural Runway - ANSWER: Architectural runway provides one of the means by
which SAFe implements the concepts of Agile
architecture. This runway provides the necessary technical basis for developing
business initiatives
