Selected Answer: C
I select C because the most important for Agile team is to complete the work in the selected sprint backlog. Option C, if they have few defects but the completed amount is smaller than plan, it does not make sense.

Confused between C and D If C - There is no guarantee of value delivered. Teams would have worked on less impactful tasks or compromised quality. if D - Chances that low value features were delivered. Any thougts?

Selected Answer: D
Typical mistake #1. Velocity is unique for each team, mostly because of the team’s own definition of story points. So velocity is not useful as a comparison metric for team performance.

What do u think guys about this question? the outperforming team is the one who has completed more story points.

Every team has different sizing specifications, you cannot judge a team's performance on the basis of the story points. Sizing really does not matter in terms of performance.
