How is Scrum described in the material?

• A. A list of tasks grouped by priority
• B. Methodology/framework used in Agile projects; practical set of instructions for development to break down work and deliver fast, incremental value.
• C. A document management system
• D. A testing tool

Answer: (B)

Scrum is a framework within Agile for delivering work. It provides a practical set of rules and practices that help teams break work into small, time-boxed iterations called sprints, and aim to produce a potentially shippable increment each time. By defining roles, events, and artifacts, Scrum creates transparency, enables regular inspection and adaptation, and supports continuous improvement. This description matches the idea of Scrum as an Agile framework that guides how development is organized to deliver value in small, incremental steps.

Why the other options don’t fit: treating Scrum as just a list of tasks misses the structured approach Scrum uses—there’s more to it than a simple prioritized list, since it includes roles, ceremonies, and artifacts. Calling it a document management system or a testing tool ignores the collaborative, iterative management aspect Scrum provides for delivering value, not just handling documents or tests.
