True. The Sprint Review is the event where stakeholders see the outcome of the Sprint and give feedback that shapes the Product Backlog.

Exam Question

True or False: Sprint Reviews are an opportunity to collect stakeholder feedback.
A. True
B. False

Correct Answer

A. True

Why This Is the Correct Answer

The Scrum Guide says the purpose of the Sprint Review is “to inspect the outcome of the Sprint and determine future adaptations.” During the event, “The Scrum Team presents the results of their work to key stakeholders and progress toward the Product Goal is discussed.” Stakeholders react to the Increment, share what has changed in their environment, and help decide what to do next. That feedback may lead the Product Owner to adjust the Product Backlog. The Guide also warns against reducing the event to a presentation, which is why two-way feedback matters so much here.

Why the Other Options Are Wrong

B. False Collecting stakeholder feedback is a central reason for holding the Sprint Review. Saying false would turn it into a one-way demo or a sign-off.

Exam Tip

For True/False questions about an event’s purpose, recall the event’s inspect-and-adapt target. For the Sprint Review it is the Increment and the Product Backlog, with stakeholders involved.

Key Takeaways

  • The Sprint Review inspects the outcome of the Sprint.
  • Stakeholder feedback can change the Product Backlog.
  • It is a working session, not just a demo.
