Question 10

A Scrum team has six members in total: four who work full-time in the office and two who work part-time at home. The team is arguing that synchronization each day is too difficult and has suggested that the Daily Scrum should be held every other day instead. What three main issues would arise if the Daily Scrum was held less frequently? (Choose the best three answers)
  • A The Scrum Master would lose the ability to update the burndown chart adequately.
  • B Opportunities to inspect and adapt the Sprint Backlog would be reduced.
  • C Less information regarding progress would be shared as this would cause the Sprint plan to become inaccurate and reduce transparency over progress toward the Sprint Goal.
  • D The Product Owner would not accurately inspect the utilization of the individual team members.
  • E Impediments would be raised and resolved slower.

Correct answers: B, C, E

Explanation

The Daily Scrum is an event for Developers to review progress toward the Sprint Goal and how the work in the Sprint Backlog is progressing. In Scrum, it's essential to ensure that teams are cross-functional and have all the necessary skills to deliver potentially shippable product increments. The Daily Scrum is a key event for coordination and synchronization within the team, and it should ideally be held daily to address progress, impediments, and plan for the day's work. Holding the Daily Scrum every other day reduces the frequency of communication and may lead to slower issue resolution, reduced adaptability, and decreased transparency.
