Week 12 - 13 Agile Methodologies

A shared understanding of criteria that a product must meet to be considered complete

• Definition of Done

• Burndown chart

• Extreme programming

• User Story

Which of the following statements best defines the Agile Development Philosophy?

• Working software over comprehensive documentation

• Responding to change over following a plan

• All of these choices

• Customer collaboration over contract negotiation

What is the emphasis of Scrum in Agile Development Methodology?

• Focuses primarily on the team level

• Controls list of deliverables (product backlog) of what the system will do

• Combines best practices in a new way to produce results greater than the sum of its parts

• Emphasizes more on processes than people (developers)

What is a fundamental principle of Agile Modeling regarding model creation?

• Creating models in isolation without collaboration

• Relying solely on comprehensive documentation

• Generating intricate and detailed models

• Building multiple models

During sprint planning, a team realizes they might not complete all the committed user stories. What action is consistent with Scrum practices in this situation?

• Extend working hours to ensure all user stories are completed within the sprint.

• The team adjusts the scope for the current sprint without changing its duration.

• Increase the sprint duration to accommodate the additional user stories.

• Remove some of the more challenging user stories from the sprint backlog.

Which practice involves creating several models in parallel in Agile Modeling Practices?

• Teamwork

• Use right models

• Iterative and incremental modeling

• Create simple content

Which practice is emphasized in Agile Modeling for collaborative modeling?

• Simplicity

• Teamwork

• Iterative and incremental modeling

• Validation

During an Agile Modeling session, team members encounter disagreements about the level of detail required in a model. How should they resolve this situation, following Agile Modeling practices?

• Simplify the model to focus on essential content rather than intricate representation.

• Develop separate models, one for each team member's preference.

• Proceed with the detailed model as it ensures comprehensive documentation.

• Create multiple versions, each representing a different level of detail.

Extreme Programming (XP) in Agile Development Methodology:

• Combines best practices in a new way to produce results greater than the sum of its parts

• Focuses primarily on the team level

• Takes proven industry best practices and focuses on them intensely

• Controls the list of deliverables (product backlog)

What are the principles of Agile Modeling?

• Develop software as the primary goal

• Minimize modeling activity

• All of these choices

• Build multiple models
