Ques:- How do you prioritize features or tasks in an Agile sprint
Right Answer:
We prioritize features or tasks in an Agile sprint using a combination of factors like business value, risk, effort/size, dependencies, and urgency. Product Owner usually leads this, using techniques like MoSCoW (Must have, Should have, Could have, Won't have) or story pointing, to ensure the most valuable items are tackled first.
Ques:- What is the importance of cross-functional teams in Agile, and how do you foster collaboration
Right Answer:
Cross-functional teams in Agile are important because they bring together all the necessary skills to complete work without dependencies on other teams. This leads to faster delivery, better problem-solving, and increased innovation. To foster collaboration, encourage open communication, shared understanding of goals, mutual respect, and a focus on collective ownership.
Ques:- How do you approach Agile at scale (e.g., SAFe, LeSS) for larger teams or organizations
Right Answer:
I would assess the organization's context, choose a suitable scaling framework like SAFe or LeSS based on needs, implement it incrementally with training and coaching, focusing on value delivery, and continuously inspect and adapt the implementation based on feedback and results.
Ques:- What are Agile ceremonies (like sprint planning, daily stand-ups, sprint reviews, retrospectives), and how do they work
Right Answer:
Agile ceremonies are recurring meetings within a sprint to facilitate communication, planning, and continuous improvement.

* **Sprint Planning:** The team decides what work to complete in the upcoming sprint. They discuss user stories, estimate effort, and define the sprint goal.

* **Daily Stand-up:** A brief daily meeting where the team shares progress, identifies roadblocks, and coordinates efforts. Each member typically answers: What did I do yesterday? What will I do today? Are there any impediments?

* **Sprint Review:** The team demonstrates the completed work to stakeholders, gathering feedback and ensuring alignment with expectations.

* **Sprint Retrospective:** The team reflects on the past sprint, identifying what went well, what could be improved, and defining action items to enhance future performance.
Ques:- Can you explain the key principles of the Agile Manifesto
Right Answer:
The Agile Manifesto values:

* **Individuals and interactions** over processes and tools.
* **Working software** over comprehensive documentation.
* **Customer collaboration** over contract negotiation.
* **Responding to change** over following a plan.

That is, while the items on the right have value, we value the items on the left more.
