SAFE DEVOPS 5.1 EXAM SCRIPT 2026
COMPLETE TESTED QUESTIONS ANSWERS
◉ CALMR approach to DevOps Answer: - Culture: Establish and
culture of shared responsibility for development, deployment and
operations
- Automation: Automate the Continuous Delivery Pipeline
- Lean flow: Keep batch size small, limit WIP, and provide extreme
visibility
- Measurement: Measure the flow through the pipeline. Implement
application telemetry
- Recovery: Architect and enable low-risk releases. Establish fast
recovery, fast reversion, and fast fix-forward.
**IMPLEMENTED IN REVERSE
◉ Benefit Hypothesis Answer: Justifies feature implementation cost
and provides business perspective when making scope decisions
◉ Feature Answer: Object
- Component of an Epic
- Has a Benefit Hypothesis
, - Has Acceptance Criteria
- Reflects functional and non-functional requirements
- Fits in one PI
◉ Job Sequencing Answer: Prioritizing based on lean economics
using Cost of Delay (CoD) and cost to implement
◉ Weighted Shortest Job First (WSJF) Answer: A prioritization
model used to sequence jobs (e.g., Features, Capabilities, and Epics)
to produce maximum economic benefit. In SAFe, it is estimated as
the cost of delay divided by job size.
◉ Cost of Delay Answer: User & Business Value + Time criticality +
Risk Reduction & Opportunity Enablement.
This is the numerator for WSJF
◉ Hypothesize Answer: Activity of Continuous Exploration.
Describes practices necessary to identify ideas, and the
measurements needed to validate them with customer
◉ Mean Time to Restore (MTTR) Answer: The measurement of how
long it takes to repair a system or component once a failure occurs.
