Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) — Question 146

An adaptive project team is grooming the backlog for the next iteration. What does the team need to document in the user stories to determine the work needed to complete each story?

Answer options

• A. Team velocity in past iterations
• B. Related epics of each story
• C. Detailed acceptance criteria
• D. Product owner's priorities

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as detailed acceptance criteria provide clear conditions that must be met for a user story to be considered complete, guiding the team's work. Options A, B, and D, while useful for overall project understanding, do not directly specify the work required to complete each individual user story.
