You are a Scrum Master and one of the Developers approaches you and says: Every Sprint we are not completing regression testing for all of the selected Product Backlog items in the Sprint, but regression testing is part of the Definition of Done. We have discussed with the Product Owner and during the Sprint we decided to change the Definition of Done to remove regression testing. Which two actions are appropriate in this situation?
(choose the best two answers)

• A.Agree with altering the Definition of Done, if both the Developers and Product Owner agree.
• B.Ask the Developers and the Product Owner what problem they are going to solve by altering the Definition of Done during the Sprint to remove regression testing. Will this raise transparency or improve quality?
• C.Disagree with the decision and tell them that having a stringent Definition of Done is important for the quality of the product, and they need to follow it.
• D.Ask the Developers and the Product Owner if removing regression testing from the Definition of Done allows the team to produce useful and valuable Increments at the end of every Sprint?

Your organization always stresses the importance of on-time delivery and reliability. A manager has detected that your team's progress is too slow. They feel that your team's velocity needs to be 10% higher.
The organization expects you, as the Scrum Master, to make it happen. How do you respond?
(choose the best two answers)

• A.You explain how a Scrum Team uses the velocity of a Sprint primarily to forecast work for the next Sprint, not to perfectly predict future productivity. You refer management to the Product Owner for all information concerning the progress of development.
• B.You educate management that it is the Scrum Team's responsibility to improve their velocity. You invite management to the next Sprint Retrospective to brainstorm on how they can improve.
• C.You tell management that this is not your accountability in Scrum. You direct them to the Product Owner to determine whether the forecast is accurate.
• D.You inform management of organizational impediments that prevent the Scrum Team from being more productive. You enlist their help to remove these impediments.
• E.You help management understand that it typically takes a few Sprints for a team to gradually increase the velocity up to the level expected. Meanwhile you present this to the team as a challenge and a company goal, leaving it however up to them to figure out exactly how to achieve this.
