Tables arranged in a U-shape with a big gulf in the middle create distance and make it hard to move around.

Question: What does acronym DRY stand for?

Options:

A. Don't Repeat Yourself

B. Don't Reject Yourself

It also decreases the risk of introducing a defect by making a necessary change in one place but not in another.

Question: Which of the following technique of Scrum requires that every slice of functionality created by the developers be complete?

Options:

A. Team Collaboration

B. Sashimi

C. Scrum tool

D. Ability

Explanation : Correct Answer is B. Scrum uses the sashimi technique to require that every slice of functionality created by the developers be complete. All of the requirements gathering and analysis, design work, coding, testing, and documentation that constitute a complete product are required to be completed in every Sprint and demonstrated in the Sprint increment of functionality. Sprints are kept short enough that the stakeholders don’t lose interest in the project before the Sprints are completed. And stakeholders can see that they have an opportunity to redirect the project at the start of every Sprint to optimize the value they derive from the project. At the end of every Sprint, stakeholders see new functionality. Models, requirements, and internal artefacts might be of use to the developers, but they are never shown to the stakeholders.

Question: John and Joseph are working in the same room. John is programming and Joseph is having some discussion with Kim. John gets to hear their conversation and gets enough information to know that Joseph has talked about some idea with Kim. What kind of communication is this referred to as?

Options:

A. Push Communication

B. Osmotic Communication

C. Pull Communication

D. Active Listening

Explanation : Correct Answer is B. While writing, reading, typing, or talking, we pick up traces of the ongoing sounds around us, using some background listening mode, even though we are not consciously paying attention. If someone says something interesting, we may perk up and join the conversation. Otherwise, the sound goes through some background processing, either just above or just below our conscious level. In some cases, we register enough about the conversation to be able to develop what we need directly from memory. Otherwise, we may recall a phrase that was spoken, or perhaps only that a particular person was discussing a particular topic. In any case, we can ask about it. This taking in information without directly paying attention to it is like the process of osmosis, in which one substance seeps from one system, through a separator, into another. Osmotic communication further lowers the cost of idea tran sfer.

Question: DSDM uses MoSCoW technique to create the prioritized requirements list. In MoSCoW technique, 'M' stands for :

Options:

A. Medium

B. Must Have

C. Must Not Have

D. Minimum Marketable Features

Explanation : Correct Answer is B. DSDM popularized the MoSCoW prioritisation scheme, deriving its name from the first letters of its labels of “Must…”, “Should…”, “Could…”, “Would like to have, but not this time.” Under MoSCoW, we have some easier-to-defend categories. “Must-have” requirements or features are fundamental to the system; without them, the system does not work or has no value. “Should have’s” are important--by definition, we should have them for the system to work correctly; if they are not there, then the work-around will likely be costly or cumbersome. “Could have’s” are useful net additions that add tangible value, and “Would like’s” are the “also-ran” requests that are duly noted--but unlikely to make the cut.

Question: What are the four key terms by which the iterative part of Agile is defined?

Options:

A. timeboxed, releasable, agility and incremental

B. Iterative, feature-based, timeboxed, and incremental

C. Feature-based, timeboxed, agility and incremental

D. None of the above

Explanation : Correct Answer is B. Iterative development means that we build a partial version of a product and then expand that version through successive short time periods of development followed by reviews and adaptations. Feature-based delivery means that the engineering team builds features of the final product or, particularly with industrial products, at least a close representation of the final product (such as a simulation model). Iterations are constrained to produce a result within a certain period of time—a timebox (as short as 1–4 weeks for software). Timeboxes force closure; they force us to make something concrete, often before we are quite ready. Incremental development means that we build these products such that they could be deployed at the end of one or more of the iterations.
