Your team uses Microsoft Visual Studio Team Foundation Server (TFS) to manage the software development process. You use the Microsoft Visual Studio Scrum 2013 process template on your TFS Team Project.
You work with the product owner to define and prioritize the Product Backlog.
Due to new business regulations, a group of product backlog items need to be implemented sooner than initially planned.
You need to raise the business value of the affected product backlog items.
Which two actions should you perform? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.
A. Edit the Product Backlog Item work item by changing the resolution to a higher value.
B. Select the Product Backlog Item, and drag it towards the top of the backlog.
C. Adjust the business value on the Product Backlog Item.
D. Edit the Product Backlog Item work item by changing the priority to a higher value.
E. Select the Product Backlog Item, and drag it towards the bottom of the backlog.
Correct Answer: BC
Explanation/Reference:
PBI (Product Backlog Item) fields include:
* (B, not E) Stack Rank
A subjective rating of the user story, task, issue, or bug compared to other work items of the same type. An item that is assigned a lower number should be fixed before an item that is assigned a higher number.
Note: The sequence of items on the product backlog page is determined according to where you have added the items or dragged the items on the page. As you drag items, a background process updates the Stack Rank field.
* Move items in the Product Backlog to change their priority, example:
* (C)Business Value: Specify a number that captures the relative value of a PBI compared to other PBIs. The higher the number, the greater the business value. By defining the Business Value, product owners can specify priorities separate from the changeable backlog stack ranking.
Incorrect:
Not A: resolution is an HTML field which describes how the impediment was resolved.
Not D: The lower the value the higher the priority.
