Salesforce Certified Business Analyst — Question 43

The Salesforce delivery team at Cloud Kicks consistently has user stories that developers start but are unable to complete during each sprint. During the most recent retrospective, the development team expressed that they are running out of time to complete the stories. The team used the INVEST checklist to diagnose why these stories are Incomplete at the end of the sprint.
Which checklist item is the most likely reason why the stories are incomplete at the close of the sprint?

Answer options

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The 'Small' aspect of the INVEST criteria indicates that user stories should be manageable within a single sprint. If stories are too large and complex, they may not be completed in the given time frame, leading to incompleteness. The other options, 'Negotiable' and 'Valuable', do not directly address the size and feasibility of completing the stories within the sprint duration.
