The Sprint Goal is a result of Sprint Planning, as is the Sprint Backlog. True or False?

The Sprint Goal and the Sprint Backlog are both outcomes of Sprint Planning, making this statement

true. According to the Scrum Guide, Sprint Planning is an event where the Scrum Team collaborates

to define the work to be performed during the Sprint. The Sprint Goal is a single objective set for the

Sprint, providing focus and coherence to the work selected. It is crafted collaboratively by the

Product Owner, Developers, and Scrum Master during Sprint Planning. Simultaneously, the Sprint

Backlog is created, consisting of the Product Backlog items selected for the Sprint plus a plan to

deliver them, aligned with the Sprint Goal. The Scrum Guide states: "Sprint Planning initiates the

Sprint by laying out the work to be performed... This resulting plan is created by the collaborative

work of the entire Scrum Team." Thus, both the Sprint Goal and Sprint Backlog emerge from this

event, confirming option A as correct.
