Professional Scrum Master I (PSM I) — Question 100

For the purpose of transparency, when does Scrum say a valuable and useful increment must be available? (Choose the best answer.)

Answer options

• A. After the Acceptance Testing phase.
• B. Before the release Sprint.
• C. Every 3 Sprints.
• D. At the end of every Sprint.
• E. When the Product Owner asks to create one.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because Scrum mandates that increments must be delivered at the end of each Sprint to ensure transparency and continuous feedback. Options A, B, C, and E do not align with Scrum's framework, as they suggest infrequent delivery or conditions based on external requests rather than the structured cadence of Sprints.
