Q7. The Scaled Agile Framework advocates that, if you measure only one thing, what should you measure?
- quality
- predictability of delivery
- cost of delay
- return on investment
- to maximize the return on investment
- to determine the economic sequencing of the backlog
- to visualize queue length
- to fulfill a commitment to quality
Reference Weighted Shortest Job First (WSJF) is a prioritization model used to sequence jobs (eg., Features, Capabilities, and Epics) to produce the maximum economic benefit. In a flow-based system, priorities are updated continuously to provide the best economic outcomes. Job sequencing, rather than individual job return on investment, produces the best result. To that end, WSJF is used to prioritize backlogs by calculating the relative CoD and job size (a proxy for the duration).
Q9. You have classified the features in your backlog according to risk and value. Which features should the development team work on first?
- low-value and high-risk
- high-value and high-risk
- high-value and low-risk
- low-value and low-risk
Reference It is suggested that high business value, high-risk items are worked on first. While that may seem counterintuitive, the earlier this work is done, the sooner the team will move to mitigate the issues and unknowns—leading to a higher quality product. If there's a failure, it will occur early and relatively inexpensively.

Q18. The VP of Engineering wants to start giving out a "Team Member of the Sprint" award to recognize a top performer in each group. What advice should you give this VP?

- This is a good idea because awards can motivate people to do their best.
- This is unhelpful because it can destroy the team unity essential to achieving high performance.
- A Kanban has an explicit rule to limit WIP.
