Basic Scrum Knowledge

This is the shortest Scrum test in the catalog: 10 questions in 20 minutes at an entry level. It verifies that a candidate has either worked on a Scrum project or studied the basics.

The questions cover how the Product Backlog is organized, who estimates its elements, who clarifies doubts about them, when tasks are added to user stories, the usual length of a sprint, the daily coordination meeting, the Sprint Review or Demo, the Retrospective, the Sprint Burndown and who guides the team in the correct use of Scrum.

If you need to look at the Scrum Master role in more depth, Test for Scrum Masters includes all ten of these questions and adds ten more on velocity, retrospective topics, scaling the daily scrum and the first sprint.
