What are possible benefits from practicing Test-Driven Development? (choose the best three answers)

It helps to identify gaps in understanding the desired behavior.

It might lead to better code as refactoring is part of the Test-Driven Development cycle.

It is a great way for Testers to contribute early in the Sprint as they can start creating all the tests from the beginning.

It increases collaboration between Developers as it requires Pair Programming.

It helps to identify gaps in understanding the desired behavior.

It might lead to better code as refactoring is part of the Test-Driven Development cycle.

It helps break down complex problems into smaller ones that are much easier to be tackled.

Based on 'Sprint 7 Burn-Down Chart,' would you do anything different in Sprint 8? (choose the best two answers)

The Developers may forecast less overall work in Sprint 8.

The Developers put incomplete Product Backlog items back into the Product Backlog for re-ordering. The Product Owner may ask the Developers to complete the unfinished Product Backlog items from Sprint 7 in Sprint 8.

Stakeholders will encourage the Scrum Team to estimate better during the Sprint 8 Planning Meeting.

There is nothing wrong. The Developers will present all Product Backlog items selected for Sprint 7 at the end of the Sprint.

The Developers carry over incomplete Sprint Backlog items from Sprint 7 to Sprint 8 and monitor the Sprint 8 burn-down chart. As soon as deviation from trends is detected, the Developers work with the Product Owner to negotiate remaining work.

When using Scrum, can a Scrum Team use Continuous Delivery? (choose the best answer)

Yes, there is nothing in Scrum that conflicts with Continuous Delivery.

No, because the increment has to be approved at the Sprint Review before it can be released, and a 2-week Sprint would not be considered continuous.

No, because stakeholders may have already seen the new features and the Sprint Review will be meaningless.

No, because before releasing an Increment it first has to fulfill the Definition of Done.
