Scrum Review Meeting

Correct Answer: The team should not demonstrate features that are not potentially shippable. The item should be returned to the Product Backlog for consideration in the next sprint.

In Scrum, a team should not demonstrate features that are not potentially shippable, which means fully functionable and usable, including in production environment not only in the development environment. Since the feature only works in the development environment, it is not potentially shippable yet. Hence, it should be returned to the Product Backlog for consideration in the next sprint. This is why the best action would be 'The team should not demonstrate features that are not potentially shippable. The item should be returned to the Product Backlog for consideration in the next sprint.'The other options are incorrect because:- 'Consider it as done and move on to the next item.' is inappropriate because a feature that only works in the development environment can't be considered done or shippable- 'Ask the Product Owner to validate it in the development environment.' is also not acceptable because features need to be tested not only in development environment but also in the environment where they will be deployed or used, i.e. the production environment- 'Give the team additional time, after the review meeting, to fix the issue.' indicates a disregard for the Scrum rules. It is a bad practice to continue working on a sprint backlog item outside of the sprint timeframe.

Correct Answer: Inspect the increment

The primary goal of the Scrum Review meeting is to inspect the increment to ensure that the product backlog items completed during the sprint are according to the acceptance criteria and to achieve feedback to adapt the product backlog if needed. The Review meeting is not focused on allocating tasks for the next sprint, as task allocation is part of the Sprint Planning. Reviewing individual performances is not the aim of any Scrum event; rather, Scrum focuses on team collaboration and achievement. Lastly, while feedback from the Review meeting might inform the refinement of the product backlog, gathering detailed requirements for the product backlog is not the primary goal of this meeting but may be part of Product Backlog Refinement activities. Thus, the correct answer focuses on the inspection of the increment as the fundamental goal of the Scrum Review meeting.

Correct Answer: The Product Owner should consider the feedback and adjust the Product Backlog as needed

The Product Owner is responsible for maximizing the value of the product and the work of the Development Team. They are the sole person responsible for managing the Product Backlog, including prioritizing and incorporating feedback. The Scrum Team should not immediately incorporate all feedback without consideration, as some feedback may not align with the product goals or be feasible within the project constraints. The Scrum Master's role is to ensure that the Scrum process is followed and to facilitate the team's self-organization, not to direct the team or make prioritization decisions. The team should not vote on priorities, as this goes against the Scrum principle of the Product Owner being the single authority on the Product Backlog.
