Introduction to Scrum PSM II: Professional Scrum Master II Exam
The Professional Scrum MasterTM level II (PSM II) assessment is available to anyone who wishes to demonstrate his or her ability to apply the Scrum framework to solving advanced, complex problems in the real world. Those that pass the assessment will receive the industry-recognized PSM II Certification as an indication of their advanced knowledge and abilities about Scrum and the role of the Scrum Master.
Anyone attempting the PSM II should have advanced Scrum knowledge, in-depth Scrum experience, and/or have taken the Professional Scrum Master course before taking this assessment. However, attending a course is neither necessary nor sufficient for certification. The PSM II assessment is very difficult and consists of multiple-choice questions based on your knowledge of Scrum and how you would handle real-world situations. Preparation of the exam should be started with PSM II dumps.
NEW QUESTION 85
Steven is a Scrum Master of a Scrum Team that is new to Scrum. At the halfway point of the Sprint, the Product Owner comes to Steven telling him that he is concerned the Development Team will not be able to complete the entire Sprint Backlog by the end of the Sprint.
What should Steven do in this situation?
- A. Advise the Product Owner that the Development Team owns the Sprint Backlog and it is up to them to meet their commitments. No one tells the Development Team how to turn Product Backlog into Increments of potentially releasable functionality.
- B. Coach the Product Owner that with complex software development, you cannot promise the entire scope that was forecast during Sprint Planning. As more is learned during the Sprint, work may emerge that affects the Sprint Backlog.
- C. Motivate the Development Team to meet their commitment to the Product Owner.
- D. Add more people to the Development Team to meet the Product Owner's expectations.
Answer: B
Explanation:
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 Sprint Backlog is a forecast by the Development Team about what functionality will be in the next Increment and the work needed to deliver that functionality into a 'Done' Increment. The Development Team modifies the Sprint Backlog throughout the Sprint, and the Sprint Backlog emerges during the Sprint. This emergence occurs as the Development Team works through the plan and learns more about the work needed to achieve the Sprint Goal.
Why C is incorrect:
a) The Dev Team does not commit to finishing all items in the Sprint Backlog. Committing to completing all items would be fixed scope and fixed time leaving no room to adapt. They commit to the Sprint Goal and doing the right thing.
b) It's also incorrect for the PO to focus on completing the entire Sprint Backlog. Finishing everything should not be his main focus. Having a shippable increment that meets the Sprint Goal is more important than trying to finish everything. The advice in option C is equivalent to "Don't worry, they'll get everything done." but because of the complex domain, you cannot guarantee everything will get done.
NEW QUESTION 86
As a Scrum Master, you observe that the Product Owner is not collaborating with the Development Team effectively.
What action would you take?
- A. Nominate a proxy Product Owner.
- B. Act as the go-between.
- C. Send the Product Owner to training.
- D. Coach the Product Owner.
Answer: D
Explanation:
A Scrum Master coaches those inside and outside the team on the values of Scrum and incremental delivery.
NEW QUESTION 87
The Development Team should have all the skills and competencies needed to:
- A. Do all of the development work in order to handoff to the testers in the subsequent Sprint.
- B. Complete the project within the estimate as committed to the Product Owner.
- C. Turn the Product Backlog items it selects into a potentially releasable product increment of functionality.
Answer: C
NEW QUESTION 88
When multiple Scrum Teams are working from the same Product Backlog, also known as scaled Scrum, they must still work in conformance of the Scrum guide.
- A. True
- B. False
Answer: A
Explanation:
Scrum is a framework with built in flexibility to support multiple Scrum Teams working on a single product.
NEW QUESTION 89
Your organization requires all Increments to pass user acceptance testing (UAT) before it is allowed to be released to production.
Is it a good idea to postpone UAT until the end of the project to prevent the Development Team from being disrupted during the Sprints?
- A. No, because the state of the Product Increment won't be transparent and the feedback loop would be too long.
- B. Yes, because the Development Team is a self-organizing team and should not be disrupted during development.
- C. It depends on the team's Definition of Done.
- D. Yes, because UAT is done in a hardening Sprint before the release Sprint.
Answer: A
Explanation:
The purpose of each Sprint is to deliver Increments of potentially releasable functionality that adhere to the Scrum Team's current definition of "Done". At the end of a Sprint, the new Increment must be "Done", which means it must be in useable condition and meet the Scrum Team's definition of "Done". An increment is a body of inspectable, done work that supports empiricism at the end of the Sprint. If UAT is a part of the team or organizational standard, then any delay in this activity will reduce transparency and increase risk.
NEW QUESTION 90
By the end of the Sprint, a Product Backlog item in the Sprint Backlog does not meet the team's Definition of Done.
What two things should happen with the item? (Choose two.)
- A. Do not include the item in the Increment for the Sprint.
- B. It will be inspected at the Sprint Review and if it is acceptable by the stakeholders then include it in the Increment.
- C. Split the item and add the estimation of the completed work to the current Sprint so not to impact the velocity and add the 'undone' work to the next Sprint.
- D. Estimate the remaining work needed to make it 'done' and add it to the Product Backlog for the Product Owner to decide what to do with it.
Answer: A,D
Explanation:
At the end of a Sprint, the new Increment must be 'Done', which means it must be in useable condition and meet the Scrum Team's definition of 'Done'. Scrum Team members must have a shared understanding of what it means for work to be complete, to ensure transparency. This is the Definition of Done for the Scrum Team and it is used to assess when work is complete on the product Increment.
NEW QUESTION 91
The three pillars of empirical process control consist of:
- A. Planning, Demonstration, Retrospective
- B. Respect For People, Kaizen, Eliminating Waste
- C. Planning, Inspection, Adaptation
- D. Inspection, Transparency, Adaptation
Answer: D
Explanation:
These three pillars uphold every implementation of the empirical process control. Without them, Scrum cannot be implemented as intended.
NEW QUESTION 92
A new Product Owner is hired to work on an existing product that has ongoing for five Sprints. He/she is unsure about all of the responsibilities of a Product Owner. Which of these Product Owner's activities are defined in Scrum?
- A. Interacting with stakeholders and ensuring that the most valuable functionality is always produced first.
- B. Writing User Stories.
- C. Ensuring work is completed within scope and time.
- D. Describing features as Use Cases.
Answer: A
NEW QUESTION 93
What must the Development Team do during the first Sprint?
- A. Create a project plan in order to map functional development to Sprint dates.
- B. Only design and develop the architecture and infrastructure.
- C. Create a potentially shippable product Increment that includes at least one piece of functionality.
- D. Analyze and estimate the requirements for the subsequent Sprints.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Sprints promote iterative and incremental development.
NEW QUESTION 94
The Development Team has suggested to move the Daily Scrum to every other day instead of every day.
What is the most appropriate action for the Scrum Master to take?
- A. Learn why the Development Team wants this, coach the team on why the Daily Scrum is important and work with them to improve the outcome of the Daily Scrum.
- B. Have the Development Team members vote on which days the Daily Scrum should occur.
- C. Support the self-organizing team's decision.
Answer: A
Explanation:
The Scrum Master is responsible for promoting and supporting Scrum as defined in the Scrum Guide. Scrum Masters do this by helping everyone understand Scrum theory, practices, rules, and values.
NEW QUESTION 95
What is a Product Owner responsibility that he/she might delegate?
- A. Representing stakeholders to the Scrum team
- B. Ordering the Product Backlog
- C. Writing User Stories
- D. Attending the Sprint Review
Answer: B
Explanation:
The Development Team may need to order the Product Backlog as they would know the most about technical limitations, risks, or dependencies between Product Backlog Items. As User Stories is a localized practice, Scrum does not govern it or dictate the practice. How the team describes the items is up to them as long as it has enough information to be transparent and understood.
NEW QUESTION 96
At the fifth Sprint Retrospective, the Product Owner mentions that he is surprised about the amount of technical debt that has built up in the system and that the product is not able to support an adequate number of users.
Peter, the Product Owner, is upset that the product will need several more Sprints to address the scalability issues in order to meet his expectations.
What factors may have led to this?
- A. None of the above.
- B. The Scrum Team has not used the past Sprint Retrospectives effectively to inspect and adapt.
- C. All of the above.
- D. The Scrum Master has not ensured that the Scrum Team is transparent.
- E. The Development Team has not been paying enough attention to technical quality.
- F. The Development Team and the Product Owner are not having conversations around technical debt.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Each component within the Scrum framework serves a specific purpose and is essential to Scrum's success and usage. Scrum's roles, events, artifacts, and rules are immutable and although implementing only parts of Scrum is possible, the result is not Scrum.
NEW QUESTION 97
Technical Debt can lead to false assumptions about the current state of the system and the Increment reviewed at the end of the Sprint.
- A. True
- B. False
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
Explanation:
Technical debt is any shortcomings in the code. It is a natural by-product of software development (unavoidable) and can at best be managed. If neglected, it will compound and have a negative effect on the team's ability to the deliver value. A team can have an artificially high velocity by taking shortcuts or introducing technical, debt into the system. This can give a false assumption about the current state of the product. It can look good on the surface but underneath can be a mess.
NEW QUESTION 98
A high performing Scrum Team will have frequent Release Sprints.
- A. True
- B. False
Answer: B
Explanation:
There are no special Sprints. All Sprints are structured to produce potentially shippable product Increments.

- B. Each Scrum Team must have an equal amount of User Stories per Sprint.
- C. The Scrum Team with the highest capacity will pull items from the Product Backlog first.
- D. The Product Owner separates the Product Backlog items for each team.
Answer: A

NEW QUESTION 103
The director of engineering in your organization always stresses the importance of meeting deadlines in order for the engineering department to be seen as a reliable source for the product management department. The director has calculated that the team's velocity needs to increase an additional 15% to meet the commitment he made to management for the release date of the product.
He asks Steven, the team's Scrum Master, to increase his team's velocity. Which would be the best two responses for Steven to take? (Choose two.)
- A. He informs the director of organizational impediments he is aware of that prevent the team from being more productive. He suggests collaborating with him on how to remove these impediments.
- B. He helps the director understand that it typically takes a few Sprints for a team to gradually increase the velocity up to the level expected. Meanwhile he presents this to the team as a challenge and a company goal, leaving it however up to them to figure out exactly how to achieve this.
- C. He tells the director that this is not his responsibility in Scrum. He tells the director to work with the Product Owner to check whether the estimates on the Product Backlog are being respected during implementation.
- D. He educates his director how it is part of a team's self-organization to improve velocity. He invites the director to the next Sprint Retrospective to brainstorm on how they can improve.
- E. He explains how a team uses the velocity of a Sprint primarily to forecast work for the next Sprint, not to perfectly predict future productivity. He refers the director to the Product Owner for all information concerning the progress of development.
Answer: A,E
