CSM Exam Dumps : Certified ScrumMaster Exam

Adone Incrementisusable, meaning it meets the Scrum Team's Definition of Done and can be used or inspected by stakeholders. While the Increment may not always be released to end users, it must be in a usable state to ensure transparency and enable feedback.

According to the2020 Scrum Guide:

An Increment is a concrete step toward the Product Goal.

Each Increment must meet the Definition of Done, ensuring it is usable and provides value, regardless of whether it is immediately released.

Why the other options are incorrect:

A. Prescriptive:Scrum is not prescriptive about how work is done, and "prescriptive" is not a characteristic of a done Increment.

B. Estimable:"Estimable" applies to Product Backlog items but is not a characteristic of a done Increment.

D. Released:While an Increment may be released, it is not a required characteristic. It simply must be in a usable state.

The Scrum Master ensures that the Scrum Team is working effectively bycoaching the team in self-management and cross-functionality. This enables the team to take ownership of their work, collaborate effectively, and achieve their goals.

According to the2020 Scrum Guide, the Scrum Master serves the Scrum Team in the following ways:

Coaching team members to improve their practices andself-management skills.

Helping the team become cross-functional so they can deliver complete, Done Increments without relying on external dependencies.

Removing impediments to their progress and facilitating productive Scrum events.

Why the other options are incorrect:

A. Plan Scrum implementations within the organization:While the Scrum Master supports Scrum adoption across the organization, this is not directly related to the Scrum Team's effectiveness.

B. Facilitate Scrum events:Facilitating events is part of the Scrum Master’s responsibilities, but the larger goal is to enable the team's effectiveness through coaching and guidance.

C. Report all user stories in management meetings:Scrum does not involve reporting to management in this way, as the focus is on delivering value rather than detailed reporting.

Why the other options are incorrect:

A. Scrum Master:The Scrum Master facilitates the process and removes impediments but does not perform the work.

B. Scrum Team:While the Scrum Team collectively owns the Sprint Goal, only the Developers execute the actual work to meet it.

D. Product Owner:The Product Owner prioritizes the Product Backlog and ensures value delivery but does not execute the work in the Sprint Backlog.
