5 daily PMP exercises to help everyone get onshore PMP!!!

1. At the end of a sprint, a team member told everyone that in this sprint, the new development method did not work, but caused misunderstanding among team members, and the development efficiency was lower.What should agile project management professionals recommend?

A. Discuss the issue at the sprint retrospective

B. Discuss the issue at the sprint review meeting

C. Discuss the issue at the next sprint planning meeting

D. Discuss the issue at the next daily standup

【Answer】: A

【Analysis】: This question examines the knowledge point: sprint review meeting.

Methodology, collaboration, communication, and team issues in the sprint should all be discussed in the retrospective.

Option B: Whether the product increment meets the requirements is an issue to be resolved at the review meeting.

Option C. Which product increments will be developed in this iteration is the content of the planning meeting.

Option D. Work done, work to be done, and obstacles encountered by individuals on a daily basis are shared at the daily standup.

2. Your company wants to transition to an agile project.Because of your previous experience in agile project management, the management appointed you as an agile coach for an agile project.During the execution of the project, the Product Owner wants to know how much granularity is needed to describe the details of the user story for the team to understand. What would you give him in this regard?

A. User stories should be as detailed as possible so there is no ambiguity

B. User stories should be no more than one index card in length, and all details should be placed in a separate document

C. Granularity should be negotiated by the team and product owner

D. User stories can contain less detail because agile focuses more on working software than detailed documentation

[Answer]: C

【Analysis】: This question examines the knowledge point: user stories.

Keywords: The level of detail of the user story.User stories are for the team to accurately understand the requirements. The granularity of details should be negotiated between the team and the product owner. In an agile team, the granularity should be "just enough" to ensure its clarity, while ensuring understanding.It is as simple as possible on the basis of being correct, so option C is the best practice.

3. During the internal meeting of the agile project, the development team members asked to collectively decide the possible size of the user story. If they used planning poker to do this work, what would the team do?

A. Estimate the size of user stories by using hours

B. Estimate the size of user stories by roughly categorizing them

C. Estimate story points by comparing user stories to similar features in the past

D. Use story points to estimate the size of user stories by voting

【Answer】: D

【Analysis】: This question examines the knowledge point: planning poker.

Agile estimation of poker is to let team members estimate the number of story points, and then choose the corresponding poker to play cards (equivalent to voting), in this way to estimate the scale of user stories, so choose option D for this question, and the rest of the statements are inconsistent.

4. In order to adapt to the rapid changes in the market, the company decided to switch from traditional waterfall development to agile development.However, it was difficult for team members to adapt and began to resist the change. Development efficiency declined instead of increasing, and conflicts and frustrations increased.To facilitate agile transformation, the following should be done, in addition to:

A eliminates team members who are not suitable for agile and recruits people with agile experience

B. Organize agile training to help teams master agile tools and methods

C. Hire an agile coach to guide the team's agile practice

D. Create systems, processes, environments and cultures suitable for agile

【Answer】: A

【Analysis】: This question examines the knowledge point: agile transformation.

Keywords: Promote agile transformation.Agile transformation is a systematic project, which requires a comprehensive transformation from personnel awareness, knowledge, methods, and tools to management processes, systems, and culture.The team should have patience and long-term planning. Options B, C, and D are all reasonable. Only option A should not be done, that is, it should not simply and rudely change the existing personnel.

5. The project manager received a project to develop a new product, the goal of which is to develop a new business field with great potential.Competitors are also developing similar products, and whoever gains user approval first will gain a huge competitive advantage.What should a project manager do?

A. Planning a Minimum Viable Product

B. Apply to the company for more resources to join the team

C. Mobilize the team to work 7 days a week, 12 hours a day before the new product is released

D. Cancel the review process and reduce testing

【Answer】: A

【Analysis】: This question examines the knowledge point: Agile project management - minimum viable product (MVP).

Keywords in the question: First gain user approval and gain a competitive advantage.The minimum viable product (MVP) has a short development cycle and low cost, and can verify user requirements as soon as possible, so option A is the best practice; agile projects do not advocate overtime and adding people, so option B and option C are not selected; canceling the review cannot be verifiedCustomer demand, reducing testing will make product quality not guaranteed.
