The purpose of the Nexus Integration Team is to:
(choose the best two answers)
A. Raise transparency.
B. Manage the Nexus.
C. Be accountable that an Integrated Increment is produced.
D. Integrate the work of the Scrum Teams.

[color=#6495ed]Scenario C: Dependencies and Product Backlog Items[/color]
In the first part of Nexus Sprint Planning, representatives from each of the 9-member Scrum Teams identify many dependencies. This makes it hard for them to choose the work they could pull into their individual teams for the next Sprint. No matter how they reorganize the Product Backlog items, they continually find more or new dependencies. There are especially two teams that have a lot of dependent work.
What would you recommend to the two teams that are continually dependent on each other to help them manage their work?
(choose the best answer)
A. Merge the two Scrum Teams together.
B. The Nexus Integration Team should be responsible for integrating the work of these two Scrum Teams.
C. Reorganize these two Scrum Teams so that one is responsible for development and one is responsible for integration.
D. Ensure the appropriate representatives from both teams are present during Cross-Team Refinement.

True or False: A Nexus Integration Team is accountable for ensuring that a Integrated Increment is produced at least once a Sprint.
A. True
B. False

[color=#6495ed]Scenario C: Dependencies and Product Backlog Items[/color]
During the Nexus Sprint Planning, representatives from each of the 9-member Scrum Teams identify many dependencies. This makes it hard for them to choose the work they could pull into their individual teams for the next Sprint. No matter how they reorganize the Product Backlog items, they continually find more or new dependencies.
What techniques could help this Nexus manage their dependencies effectively?
(choose the best two answers)
A. The Nexus Integration Team should complete the dependent work ahead of the Sprint for the teams.
B. Reorganize team members between the teams to eliminate cross-team dependencies.
C. Extend the Sprint so that the teams can have more time to compete the dependent work.
D. Reorder Product Backlog items so that you can accommodate dependencies.

During Cross-Team Refinement, the ordered Product Backlog (1 through 9) is mapped out so the Nexus can visualize dependencies. For example, PBI 5 for Team Orange is dependent on Team Red completing PBI 1.
All else being equal, which PBI is most concerning?
(choose the best answer)
A. PBI 1, because it is the first piece of work with a dependency.
B. PBI 2, because there is a dependency with a different team on work that occurs within the same Sprint.
C. PBI 1, because it is on the top of the Product Backlog.
D. PBI 2, because it has the most dependencies.

If two Scrum Teams are added to a product that previously had only one Scrum Team, what will be the immediate impact on the productivity of the original Scrum Team?
(choose the best answer)
A. Its productivity is likely to decrease.
B. Its productivity is likely to increase.
C. Its productivity is likely to stay the same.
