Selected Answer: A
Risk Visibility: Capturing and making risks visible ensures that the entire team is aware of potential issues and can monitor them closely. Burndown Chart: Using a burndown chart to track and focus on reducing risks helps the team to prioritize risk mitigation activities and measure their progress. Proactive Management: This approach allows the team to address technical issues early in the project, reducing the likelihood of significant delays or failures later on. Team Collaboration: Making risks visible fosters a collaborative environment where team members can work together to find solutions and support each other in overcoming technical challenges. Continuous Monitoring: Regularly updating the burndown chart and reviewing risks ensures that the team remains focused on mitigating risks throughout the project.

Selected Answer: A
B = wrong. The SM cannot extend the sprint's duration and allow something. C = wrong. What is a story board? Daily stand ups to make PO aware of the technical issues? D = wrong. A development manager? Not an agile role. A = correct. Maye is not the best option, but the most logical offered answer.

Selected Answer: A
A is correct. First of all, let me discuss if the PO can attend the daily scrum or not. Basically, the daily scrum is for the development team. The SM or the PO can attend the daily scrum if they are working on PBIs. They can also attend as observers. There are comments below suggesting PO cannot attend the daily scrum. Another point. please be careful to note the difference between daily stand-up and daily-scrum. Daily stand-up is an event in XP programming without the scrum rules. When you are answering questions please see if it is XP or scrum. This question does not say "scrum-team", in this case we can assume this to be either scrum or XP. Scrum has product owners, but XP does not. XP has daily standups and scrum has daily-scrum.

Scrum guide does not mention anywhere that PO and the SM cannot attend the daily scrum.

The reason why option C is not the correct answer because option C talks about placing the impacted stories themselves on the board. Placing just the impacted stories do not make the risks and the plans to handle the risks visible. Risks need to be visible at all times along with the mitigation plan and the risk owner. Capturing risks separately allows you the opportunity to track and monitor risks.

Only the Dev Team members are required for the Daily Scrum. The product owner does not participate on the daily scrum. If he does attend, he does so as an observer. Only the developers are allowed talk and participate. Hence the answer is A

You are WRONG. Kindly please don't comment on something you do not have the complete knowledge. Please read the scrum guide again.

I go for (C). The significant amount of uncertainty has been an issue needs to announce PO in daily scrum. Agile principle6: The most efficient and effective method of conveying information to and within a development team is face-to-face conversation. Eliminate (A) because only capture the issue and monitor it solve nothing.

A. Capture risks and make them visible, and use a burn down chart to focus on reducing risks early in the project. > seems to be the best answer because team proactively manage risks and reduce risk early in the project. C. Place the impacted stories on the story board, and use daily stand ups to make the product owner aware of the technical issues. > where the stories were before? Out of story board? Simple informing P.O. does not mean any other activities by itself. Also not sure
