Question 6

Kevin is a Product Owner for a retail organization. The Product Backlog for his immense marketing tool project has 200 Product Backlog Items.

Into what should he group the smaller Stories together?

    Correct Answer: A

    When dealing with a large number of Product Backlog Items, such as 200, it is practical to group smaller stories into Epics. An Epic is a large body of work that can be broken down into smaller stories or tasks. This helps manage and prioritize the workload more effectively, as it organizes the backlog into larger, more manageable chunks. Grouping smaller stories into Epics allows the Product Owner to handle the backlog efficiently without getting overwhelmed by the sheer volume of individual items.

Go through the exercise again to combine detailed low-priority items into Epics...
