Agile Scrum Sum
Hi , I need help in solving this question. Can u tell me in details how to arrive at the response.
A project is following strict time boxed iteration. It was expected to complete in 5 iteration but it took one more iteration to complete.In one of the iteration: With actual effort of 60 person hours, it delivered 6 stories with cumulative 36 story points and slipped to deliver 2 story with 9 story points, there were 30 builds created out of which 21 passed. 21 out of 30 test cases were automated. 24 test cases discovered defects. Which of the following metrics are correct?
a) Test automation percentage is 80%.Commitment slippage is 20%
b) Test case efficiency is 60%. Velocity is 0.8 Story Point/Person Hour
c) Velocity is 0.6 Story Point/Person Hour, Build success rate is 70%
d) Schedule deviation is 20% at overall level
Which practice exam is this question from?
Who would be using these metrics, and for what purpose?
Do these complement the empiricism (transparency + inspection + adaptation) that Scrum enables for self-managing teams, or are they a legacy of a different way of working, that might need to change if Scrum is going to be of any benefit?
The correct answer is "Who cares?". I am still struggling to understand what that question is trying to assess. And as @Simon Mayer said who would want to know this information. It just sounds like someone threw together a bunch of numbers and is trying to make them seem useful.
Bearing in mind that:
- No clear commitment has been made in the first place
- Velocity is the rate at which work is Done by a team, not by a person
- We ought to manage for value, not by schedule
can any of the supplied answers be said to be correct?
