SAFe Scrum Master Exam
1. Waterfall: Lots of WIP, end-timed delivery of value
2. Agile: Reduced & visible WIP, iterative delivery, fast feedback
3. Agile Value Statements: Individuals and interactions over processes
and tools. Working software over comprehensive documentation.
Customer collaboration over contract
negotiation. Responding to change over
following a plan.
4. 6 Agile Frameworks: SAFe, Scrum, Crystal, Kanban, XP, Feature-
Driven De- velopment
5. Agile Practices (8): Timeboxing, user stories, daily stand-ups,
frequent demos, test-driven development, information radiators,
retrospectives, continuous integra- tion
6. Scrum Values (5): Courage, Commitment, Respect, Openness, Focus
7. Scrum Pillars (3): transparency, inspection, and adaptation
8. Scrum Artifacts: Product Backlog, Sprint Backlog, Burndown Charts
9. Each iteration does these 4 things: Defines, builds, integrates, and
tests stories from iteration backlog
10.Goal of an iteration: Deliver working software at the end
1/
, 11.SAFe Core Values: - Alignment
- Transparency
- Built-in Quality
- Program Execution
12.Non-functional requirements: Conditions that a proposed IT system
must meet, such as working on certain hardware or giving results
within a certain time. Should be part of the DoD.
13.Program Increment (PI): 8-12 weeks or 4-6 sprints. A timebox in
which an Agile Release Train (ART) delivers incremental value in the
form of working, tested software and systems. The most common
pattern for one is four development iterations, followed by one
Innovation and Planning (IP) iteration.
14.Innovation and Planning Iteration (PI): Occurs every PI and serves
multiple purposes. It acts as an estimating buffer for meeting PI
objectives, as well as providing dedicated time for innovation,
continuing education, and PI planning and Inspect and Adapt (I&A)
events.
15.SAFe Lean-Agile Principles (9 total): 1. Take an economic view.
2. Apply systems thinking.
