PSPO 1 Exam Questions and AnswersAs a Manager, the Product Owner should tell the Developers how to decompose
Product Backlog items into smaller work items of one day or less.True or False? -
Answers -False. For each selected Product Backlog item, the Developers plan the work
necessary to create an Increment that meets the Definition of Done. This is often done
by decomposing Product Backlog items into smaller work items of one day or less. How
this is done is at the sole discretion of the Developers. No one else tells them how to
turn Product Backlog items into Increments of value.
During the Sprint Review, what happens if an item does not meet the Definition of
Done? - Answers -If a Product Backlog item does not meet the Definition of Done, it
cannot be released or even presented at the Sprint Review. Instead, it returns to the
Product Backlog for future consideration.
Therefore as it is not presented it cannot be discussed.

remain unchanged until the Product release? - Answers -False
If the Sprint Review is successful what is the resulting output? - Answers -The purpose
of the Sprint Review is to inspect the outcome of the Sprint and determine future
adaptations. The Scrum Team presents the results of their work to key stakeholders
and progress toward the Product Goal is discussed. During the event, the Scrum Team
and stakeholders review what was accomplished in the Sprint and what has changed in
their environment. Based on this information, attendees collaborate on what to do next.
The Product Backlog may also be adjusted to meet new opportunities. The Sprint
Review is a working session and the Scrum Team should avoid limiting it to a
presentation.
