Professional Scrum Master II (PSM II) — Question 143
Part of the team's Definition of `Done` requires creating or updating technical documentation in order to maintain the product and/or features in the future. The team's technical writer will be on vacation during the Sprint.
What should you do?
Answer options
- A. Encourage the technical writers from other teams to form a specialized team to organize and plan the work for multiple teams.
- B. The Development Team members will write it as they are still responsible for creating the documentation to make the Increment done in conformance with their Definition of ג€Done.ג€
- C. Wait until the technical writer returns before continuing with related items.
- D. Complete all development work first while adding technical documentation to the Product Backlog to be done in a subsequent Sprint.
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is B because the Development Team is responsible for all aspects of the Increment, including documentation, even in the absence of the technical writer. Answer A suggests forming a new team, which may not be feasible or efficient. Option C delays necessary work, and D can lead to incomplete documentation, violating the Definition of `Done`.
