Product Backlog Management

Correct Answer: The team should seek clarification and identify dependencies before including the story in the sprint.

In Scrum framework, a story must meet the Definition of Ready to be considered for a sprint. The team should seek clarification and identify dependencies before including the story in the sprint. This is to ensure that the backlog item is clearly understood by the team and can be successfully completed within the timeframe of a sprint. The other options do not align with Scrum's Definition of Ready. The option to incorporate the story into the sprint and deal with any issues as they arise disregards the importance of ensuring that a backlog item is ready for sprint planning. Similarly, the suggestion to decline the story as it lacks clarity does not align with the team's responsibility to seek clarity and identify dependencies. Finally, seeing this scenario merely as an opportunity to learn and adapt doesn't solve the immediate issue at hand, which is to ensure that the story is sprint-ready.

Correct Answer: Product display

When developing an MVP (Minimum Viable Product), the main goal is to build a product with the minimum set of features just enough to satisfy early customers and to provide feedback for future product development. In the case of an online clothing retailer, the primary feature should be 'Product display'. This is the basic function that allows customers to view the products available for purchase, their main basis for making the decision to buy. The other features such as 'Reviews and ratings', 'Customer support' and 'Online payment' are indeed important, but they are secondary or support to the product display feature. Having a good 'Product Display' can attract potential customers to explore and use the app more, leading us to gather significant user behavior data and feedback. The 'All the features should be given equal importance' choice is not the best approach for MVP, as it can lead to over-complicating the product at an early stage, can incur more costs and delays.

Correct Answer: Extensive library

In the development of any product, especially in Scrum, an MVP (Minimum Viable Product) is created first. The main purpose of an MVP is to deliver a product with sufficient features to satisfy early customers and to provide feedback for future product development. In the case of an E-book reading app, the most outstanding and necessary feature would be an 'Extensive library'. The reason is simple: you can't read without books. Even if there are other supporting features like note-taking, dictionary, and reader community, without books, they are meaningless. The other features are essentially supplementary to the core function, which is reading, thus should be developed in subsequent versions. As a Certified ScrumMaster, focusing on the core feature and ensuring the successful delivery of it in an MVP is very important for initial customer satisfaction and for getting valuable feedback.
