In order to start the first Sprint, Scrum only requires a Product Owner with enough ideas, a Development Team to execute on those ideas, and a Scrum Master to guide the process.
To start the first Sprint in Scrum, it is necessary to have more than just a Product Owner with enough ideas, a Development Team to execute those ideas, and a Scrum Master to guide the process. Additionally, an adequately prepared Product Backlog with enough items to form a Sprint Goal and create a potentially shippable Increment is required. The Sprint Goal provides direction for the team during the Sprint, and the Sprint Backlog is formulated during Sprint Planning. Without a well-prepared Product Backlog, it would be challenging to define what the team needs to accomplish during the Sprint.
To start the first Sprint, the Product Backlog should have enough items selected and appropriately ordered by the Product Owner to form a Sprint Goal and a potentially releasable Increment. The Sprint Goal defines the objective for the Sprint, and the Increment is the sum of all the completed Product Backlog items at the end of the Sprint. So, while having a Product Owner, Development Team, and Scrum Master is necessary, the presence of a well-prepared Product Backlog is also required to begin the first Sprint in Scrum.
A is my answer
This is one of those that sound good when you read it but in Scrum Guide it is explicitly stated that you need formulated Sprint Goal which is formulated by PO and Sprint Backlog formulated during Sprint Planning. Also how can you start work when there are no Produt Backlog Items in Product Backlog created?
Also - how can you begin on creating potentially shippable Increment without Definition of Done?
A is correct
