MOC EXAM 25Q Agile 100% 201->225

Question 1

You are working with the developers in an Agile team, who are using the test-driven development approach. They ask you whether they should operate using something called Red-Green-refactor. What are they referring to?

• Where no code is developed during a red status, some code is developed during a green status, and new features are taken in during refactor status.
• A traffic light approach to bringing in new features.
• Only releasing features when they are given the green light.
• Where a test is written first that fails, then passes once the solution is developed, and can then be refactored or streamlined.

Answer 1

The process of writing a test that initially fails, adding code until the test passes, then refactoring the code is part of Test Driven Development. (TDD). Red-Green-Refactor is the same as fail, pass, and streamline the code.

Question 2

Work Performance Data generally contains raw facts and figures such as start dates for various activities, the number of bugs found in the software, spent cost, etc. What is a type of Work Performance Data?
* Forecasted estimates to complete
* Implementation status for change requests
* Percent of work physically completed
* Status of deliverables

Answer 2

The different types of Work Performance Data:
1. Percent of work physically completed
2. Quality and technical performance measures
3. Start and finish dates of schedule activities
4. Number of change requests
5. Number of defects
6. Actual costs
7. Actual durations

Question 3

As you work on projects they can be influenced by many different things, and many different Enterprise Environmental Factors. What sort of influence are Marketplace conditions on your project?
* External
* Internal
* Regulatory
* Public

Answer 3

Although external factors are not under your control, or the control of the organization, they can have as much impact on your ability to execute a project.

Question 4

Features are completed in an Agile project, usually in the form of multiple user stories. When a feature is complete, the team periodically demonstrates the working product to the customer, business representative and/or the product owner. These demonstrations or reviews:

• only occur at the end of a the project, or when stakeholders are available.
• often occur at the end of an iteration, or when enough features have been completed into a set that is coherent.
• often occur at the start of the project so everyone knows what they have to deliver.
• often occur when the team wants to, as they are so busy working anyway.

Answer 4

Agile “sprint reviews”, or feature demonstrations, occur at the end of an iteration or when enough cards or features have been completed into a set that can be showcased.
