PSPO-I Exam Dumps : Professional Scrum Product Owner (PSPO I) Exam

The Developers are the ones who determine how many Product Backlog items they select for a Sprint. The Developers are self-managing and decide how much work they can do in a Sprint1. The Product Owner and the Developers collaborate on the scope of the Sprint during Sprint Planning, but the final decision is up to the Developers2. The Product Owner, the Scrum Master, and the stakeholders do not have the authority to tell the Developers how many Product Backlog items they should select, as this would violate the principle of self-management[3][3] .

The Sprint Backlog is the output of the Sprint Planning, where the Developers select the Product Backlog items that they can deliver in the Sprint and create a plan for how to do the work. The Scrum Guide states that " The Sprint Backlog is composed of the Sprint Goal (why), the set of Product Backlog items selected for the Sprint (what), as well as an actionable plan for delivering the Increment (how). " 1 The Sprint Backlog is owned and managed by the Developers, who can update it throughout the Sprint as more is learned. The Sprint Backlog makes visible all the work that the Developers identify as necessary to meet the Sprint Goal.1

The Scrum Guide states that “Sprints are the heart of Scrum where ideas are turned into value”. It also states that “Sprints have consistent durations throughout a development effort. A new Sprint starts immediately after the conclusion of the previous Sprint”. Furthermore, it states that “Sprints are limited to one calendar month. When a Sprint’s horizon is too long the definition of what is being built may change, complexity may rise, and risk may increase”. Therefore, the correct answer is B. The other options are not acceptable, as they contradict the Scrum principles of empiricism, self-organization, and adaptation.
