You are a Product Owner. The Developers are close to the end of a Sprint and ask you for 3 extra days to complete their work. They feel that if they do not get the extra time, they might look bad in front of stakeholders, who are already skeptical of using an agile approach. What should you do? (choose the best answer)

• A.Ask the Developers to work longer hours to meet their goal.
• B.Agree to extend the Sprint but ask the team to be more realistic when they plan Sprints in the future.
• C.Cut back on testing, or leave some items incomplete, so long as the Developers can "substantially meet" their goal.
• D.Ask the Developers to commit to what was agreed and find a solution for the problem.
• E.Do not extend the Sprint and stick to the original timebox. Work with the stakeholders to explain why transparency and openness are important.

You are the manager of a team, and a disagreement arises between Developers about the technical approach the team should use to solve a particular challenge. The debate gets quite heated, and there does not seem to be a compromise position. How should the team proceed?
(Choose the best answer)

• A.The Developers should run an experiment to test the alternative approaches.
• B.You, as a manager, should decide which approach to take.
• C.The Product Owner should decide which approach to take.
• D.The Scrum Master should decide which approach to take.

You manage a product development organization. Some of your teams determine that they need access to a
"production-like" test environment so that they can assess the scalability of their application as they build it.
Current processes stipulate that expensive "production-like" test environments are only available as part of final application acceptance testing, just prior to releasing the application to production. Earlier access is not possible since other teams are using the pre-production test environments. Which two of the following strategies would you pursue?
(Choose the two best answers)

• A.You help them find someone who can help them with setting up testing and simulation software that can partially emulate the "production-like" test environment.
• B.They should add additional time to the release schedule to account for the additional testing and rework that the team will have to do when they find defects late in the delivery cycle. Set stakeholder expectations accordingly.
• C.You work with the teams to develop a business case for procuring or gaining access to the necessary environment for validating the scalability of the product.
• D.Tell the teams to do their best with their current test environment, simulating production as much as possible. Then release the product and let the customer determine if the product can scale.
