Question 52

Johnny is a product owner. During their Sprint planning session, he has prioritized the items and the team has reviewed their expected estimates for each item. The top priority turns out to be one that consumes a lot of story points, while the second item is relatively low cost and high value. Johnny decides to rearrange the priority to move the second item to the first priority. This is an example of:
  • A Osmotic analysis
  • B Value-based analysis
  • C Rolling wave planning
  • D Progressive elaboration
Reveal correct answer

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Value-based analysis focuses on the value of the item, which includes both cost and benefit. This type of analysis allows you to adjust a backlog based on the perceived value of an item, something that may change over the course of the project.Rolling wave planning does not have to do with a reprioritization of the backlog, nor does progressive elaboration. Osmotic analysis is a fictional phrase here.
