Regarding the scrum methodology, would like to know.

It is correct to state whether during the Sprint:

The scope can be clarified and renegotiated between the Product Owner and the Development Team.

In reading on the subject, I interpreted that it is not possible to renegotiate or change the decisions set after the Sprint Planning Meeting, when the meeting between the product owner and the Scrum Team, The site on Scrum Methodology makes the subject very clear.

The problem is that the statement came from a correct answer of that question, that I was wrong to try to answer.

It seems to me more a matter of text interpretation. The fact is that by elimination the other 4 answers are much worse, they talk about things that affect the result.

The correct answer talks about renegotiation, but it does not say that she usually leaves the development team when she understands that the scope is not adequate and will discover along the sprint. The text of the site says that the owner of the project should not change the scope on his own initiative by changing what was foreseen in sprint, that is, it can not it can not put new requirements affecting the development of that sprint under penalty of not being able to fulfill it.

In practice this negatively affects the development, I will not go into details to avoid controversy, but imagine a change of plans not to be able to interfere in the development and have to continue doing something that will then have to be redone to meet the bureaucracy. And some people say that the methodology exists to reduce bureaucracy.

The phrase of the question option was probably taken from page 9 of a scrum guide.

I consider that the Brazilian site is, at least, confusing in what it says.

  • I imagined that it was text interpretation, always fell into some trap, it is always good to try to reach consensus with someone else, I thank you for answering =)
