Study Notes
Value Stream Mapping
- The gem or diamond shape icon represents a decision in value stream mapping.
Scrum Terminology
- A user story is NOT complete just because it is “Done”; it must meet the Definition of Done (DoD) agreed upon by the Scrum Team.
- The Development Team does NOT need prescriptive user stories to know exactly what to do; user stories should provide enough information to allow the team to decide how to implement the story.
Distributed Teams
- One strategy to create a productive distributed team is NOT to use a single, large, global team; instead, consider multiple smaller teams in different locations.
Value Stream Mapping Goal
- The goal of value stream mapping is NOT solely to determine business objective value; it aims to identify and eliminate waste, maximizing value for the customer.
Development Team Size
- For large and complex projects, the size of the development team should be as small as possible, not as large as needed, to facilitate communication and collaboration.
User Story Benefits
- The business function that can benefit the most from having priority, value, and efficiency captured in a user story is Product Management.
Agile Roles and Responsibilities
- The Product Owner is responsible for creating and maintaining the product backlog in Agile development.
Agile Principles
- A fixed price contract conflicts with the Agile principle of delivering a working product increment at the end of each sprint, which may require adjustments to scope and cost.
User Story Refinement
- If a user story appears too large to complete in a single sprint, it should be split or broken down into smaller, manageable stories.
Scrum Product Owner Role
- One of the four corporate roles that could NOT substitute for the Scrum Product Owner role is a Project Manager.
