Professional Scrum Product Owner I (PSPO I) — Question 9

Which statement best describes the Sprint Backlog as the output of the Sprint Planning? (Choose the best answer.)

Answer options

• A. Every item has a designated owner.
• B. It is ordered by the Product Owner.
• C. Each task is estimated in hours.
• D. It is the Developers plan for the Sprint.
• E. It is a complete list of all work to be done in a Sprint.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because the Sprint Backlog is indeed the Developers' plan for how they will achieve the Sprint Goal. The other options misrepresent the nature of the Sprint Backlog; for example, it is not necessarily a complete list of all work (E), nor does every task have to be estimated in hours (C). Additionally, while the Product Owner does prioritize the Product Backlog, the Sprint Backlog itself is managed by the Developers (B).
