Question 1

During a sprint, the product owner requests a major change to an ongoing Agile project. This change will impact the delivery timeline and requires a significant amount of work. What is the best approach to handle this change?

Immediately implement the change without consideration of its impact. Implement the change without assessing its impact. Ignore the change request until the current sprint is completed. Stop the current project and restart with the new change. Assess the change, evaluate its impact, and reprioritize the backlog accordingly. Reject the change request outright.

Correct Answer: Assess the change, evaluate its impact, and reprioritize the backlog accordingly.

By assessing the change, evaluating its impact, and reprioritizing the backlog accordingly, the project team can effectively manage the change without disrupting the sprint's progress.

Question 2

An Agile project encounters scope creep, and stakeholders are requesting new features, delaying the project's timeline. What should the project team do to manage these changes effectively?

Accept all scope change requests without analysis. Switch to a fixed-scope methodology. Evaluate the requests, prioritize the most valuable features, and add them to the backlog. Remove lower-priority items from the backlog to accommodate new requests. Reject all scope change requests indefinitely. Request additional resources to handle the increased scope.

Correct Answer: Evaluate the requests, prioritize the most valuable features, and add them to the backlog.

Evaluating the requests, prioritizing the most valuable features, and adding them to the backlog allows the project team to maintain control of the project scope while accommodating valuable stakeholder input.

Question 3

After completing the installation of new hardware, what change management step should be taken to ensure the documentation remains accurate?

Update network diagrams and inventory Notify users of potential downtime Reinstall the hardware Purchase more hardware

Correct Answer: Update network diagrams and inventory

The best management step to take after completing the installation of new hardware to ensure accurate documentation is to 'Update network diagrams and inventory'. This is because any changes to the network, such as adding hardware, should be thoroughly documented to ensure that the current network topology, configurations, and assets are accurately represented. 'Reinstall the hardware' is not necessary and does nothing to maintain the documentation's accuracy. 'Notify users of potential downtime' might be a part of change management, but it will not necessarily keep the documentation accurate. 'Purchase more hardware' has no direct connection to maintaining the accuracy of the documentation after installing new hardware.
