Which DORA metric measures the elapsed time from a code commit to that code running in production?
Lead time for changes measures the elapsed time from code commit to running in production. Deployment frequency measures how often deployments occur, change failure rate measures the percentage of failed deployments, and MTTR measures recovery time from failures.
Which combination of DORA metrics characterizes an elite-performing DevOps team?
Elite teams deploy multiple times per day, have lead time under one hour, MTTR under one hour, and change failure rate below 15%. The other options all mix elite and low-performance indicators.
In Scrum, who is responsible for maximizing the value of the product and ordering the Product Backlog?
The Product Owner is accountable for maximizing product value and managing the Product Backlog. The Scrum Master facilitates process, the Development Team executes work, and there is no collective ownership of backlog ordering.
In Kanban, what is the primary purpose of Work In Progress (WIP) limits?
WIP limits restrict how many items can be in progress at once, exposing bottlenecks and encouraging flow. They do not enforce speed or sprint cadence, and they apply to columns, not the backlog.
You need to track a feature that requires several user stories to be completed across multiple sprints. Which Azure Boards work item type should you create?
Epics are large initiatives that group features and user stories across multiple sprints. Tasks are leaf-level work, bugs track defects, and Issues are not a default work item type in the Agile process.
