PSM-1 practice question 13 of 35
True or False: The purpose of a Sprint Is lo produce a valuable useful Inclement.
Full set: 298 questionsThe primary purpose of a Sprint is to turn ideas into value by creating a "Done," usable, and potentially releasable product Increment. The 2020 Scrum Guide explicitly states that the entire Scrum Team is accountable for creating a valuable and useful Increment in every Sprint. This Increment is the tangible outcome of the Sprint's work and represents a concrete step toward achieving the Product Goal.
The option "False" is incorrect because it contradicts the core definition and purpose of a Sprint within the Scrum framework. A Sprint is not simply a time-box for completing tasks; its fundamental objective is the delivery of a coherent, valuable, and useful Increment of the product. Failing to produce such an Increment means the Sprint has not achieved its primary goal.

ensuring that all Increments work together. In order to provide value
the Increment must be usable."
