PSM I Exam - Question 15


When do Development Team members take ownership of a Sprint Backlog item? (Choose the best answer.)

Show Answer
Correct Answer: C

In Scrum, the Sprint Backlog is collectively owned by the entire Development Team. This is to ensure collaboration and shared responsibility for delivering the Increment. No single team member should take individual ownership of a Sprint Backlog item; rather, the whole team is accountable for completing the work planned for the Sprint. The concept of collective ownership fosters teamwork and flexibility in addressing the work needed to meet the Sprint Goal.

According to the Scrum Guide, "Sprint Planning addresses the following topic: What can be Done this Sprint? ...Through discussion with the Product Owner, the Developers select items from the Product Backlog to include in the current Sprint."

That's talking about selecting items to include in the sprint, but the question is who owns the sprint backlog and that's the developers as a whole.
