Professional Scrum Master I Certification In One Attempt Self Study Guide.
I passed my PSM I Certification on 15th March 2013. I got my self certified with no paid scrum master courses and purely based on self study. I want to help people in same situation as mine.
Hi, I'm planning on taking the PSM1 assessment in a few days. I have a few questions I'm hoping you can help me with: 1)If a team member is not working out in a scrum team, who is responsible for taking him/her out - the dev team, the SM or HR/management? 2)Does a tester have a wider role in scrum besides finding bugs? 3)Who decides how to organize Daily scrums when some team members are in different locations? 4)Is it the Product manager who decide on the estimate on PBIs in a product backlog? 5)If many Scrum teams are working on the same product backlog, should all of their increments be integrated every Sprint even if the increments are not dependent ? 6)If many Scrum teams are working on the same product, should all of their sprints/timeboxes be held at the same time? 7) Are the Sprint Planning meeting, the Daily Scrum, the Sprint Review and the Sprint Retropective the only time boxed events in Scrum? 8)What happen if all the engineering tools are not ready before the start of a sprint? Thank you so much in advance!
1) Ultimately that person's line manager, who ever that may be. 2) As part of the team they also participate in story estimations. 3) The scrum master! 4) No, estimation is always done by those who do the work, i.e. the dev team. 5) integrated? hopefully they use continuous integration. The teams branching strategy will depend on a lot of things though. 6) Not necessarily. Everything shall of course line up to a release plan, but other than that, the teams can work fairly independent. 7) I guess the sprint itself is also a time boxed event. In general you time box everything which otherwise could drag on forever. 8) That would be silly. In general you would get your basic work environment sorted out first. Later technology introductions could be done as part of the backlog as a kind of tech-debt story.
Hi,
ReplyDeleteI'm planning on taking the PSM1 assessment in a few days. I have a few questions I'm hoping you can help me with:
1)If a team member is not working out in a scrum team, who is responsible for taking him/her out - the dev team, the SM or HR/management?
2)Does a tester have a wider role in scrum besides finding bugs?
3)Who decides how to organize Daily scrums when some team members are in different locations?
4)Is it the Product manager who decide on the estimate on PBIs in a product backlog?
5)If many Scrum teams are working on the same product backlog, should all of their increments be integrated every Sprint even if the increments are not dependent ?
6)If many Scrum teams are working on the same product, should all of their sprints/timeboxes be held at the same time?
7) Are the Sprint Planning meeting, the Daily Scrum, the Sprint Review and the Sprint Retropective the only time boxed events in Scrum?
8)What happen if all the engineering tools are not ready before the start of a sprint?
Thank you so much in advance!
