EXIN Agile Scrum Master — Question 18

The Product Owner informs the team that the release will be date-driven.
What kind of buffer for uncertainty is most important to use in this type of release?

Answer options

• A. Budget buffer
• B. Feature buffer
• C. Padding buffer
• D. Schedule buffer

Correct answer: D

Explanation

In a date-driven release, the most critical buffer is the schedule buffer, which allows for adjustments in the timeline to accommodate any unforeseen delays. The other options, such as budget or feature buffers, do not directly address the timing aspect necessary for meeting a specific release date.
