Q41. You develop a solution that is managed in Microsoft Visual Studio Team Foundation Server (TFS) source control using three branches according the following table.
The branch hierarchy is shown in the exhibit. (Click the Exhibit button.)
A new project requires you to divide your team into two separate, and largely independent, teams named Feature Team 1 and Feature Team 2. Each team works on different features.
You need to recommend an effective long-term strategy that:
Allows parallel development,
Allows independent feature releases,
Minimizes conflicts,
Supports integration, and
Allows bug fixes to production code.
What should you do?
A. Instruct both feature teams work off the DEV branch. The teams should only check in when they are ready to integrate.
B. Create two new folders named FB1 and FB2 at the same level as the other branches. Instruct Feature Team 1 to check in to FB1 and Feature Team 2 to check in to FB2. When the teams are ready to integrate, perform baseless merges from FBI to DEV and FB2 to DEV.
C. Instruct Feature Team 1 to check in to the DEV branch and Feature Team 2 to check in to the MAIN branch. When the teams are ready to integration, the DEV branch will be merged into the MAIN branch.
D. Create two branches off DEV named FB1 and FB2. Instruct Feature Team 1 to check-in to FB1 and Feature Team 2 to check-in to FB2. When a team is ready to integrate, FB1 or FB2 will be merged with DEV.
Answer: D
Q42. Your company’s help desk support team comprises a single individual using an Excel spreadsheet to track tickets.
You want to improve the flow of information between the help desk and your development team.

A. . Create a custom list on SharePoint to capture ticket information.
. Have the lead developer subscribe to an alert for each ticket that is created with a type of “software defect”.
B. . Use the System Center 2012 Ticket Manager to capture tickets from the help desk.
. Enable the ticket integration adapter to push tickets captured in System Center to TFS as bug work items.
. Have the lead developer subscribe to alerts for his or her assigned work items.
C. . Create a team project on your Team Foundation Server with a custom process template to track tickets.
. For software defects, have the help desk assign the tickets to the lead developer.
. Have the lead developer review his or her assigned tickets.
D. . Publish the Excel spreadsheet to a SharePoint document library.

Q44. Your company network includes a Microsoft Visual Studio Team Foundation Server (TFS) 2012 server and Microsoft System Center 2012. Your company launches a new customer sales portal.
It is critical that all issues identified as potential bugs get addressed in a timely manner.
You need to ensure that incident response times are managed across support and development teams.
What should you do?
A. Use Service Manager.
B. Create a new incident within System Center and assign it to a bug work item in TFS.
C. Use SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) to query the Operations Manager Data Warehouse and create work items.
D. Use Orchestrator.
Answer: A
Explanation: Service Manager provides an integrated platform for automating and adapting your organization’s IT service management best practices, such as those found in Microsoft Operations Framework (MOF) and Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL). It provides built-in processes for incident and problem resolution, change control, and asset lifecycle management. Orchestrator provides a workflow management solution for the data center. Orchestrator lets you automate the creation, monitoring, and deployment of resources in your environment.
Q45. Historically your IT group has done a poor job of reporting issues and successes to key decision makers in a timely manner, due to incomplete or inconsistent application lifecycle management (ALM) practices.
You are implementing Scrum as the process framework for new projects. The scrum master will publish daily progress reports to the product owner and key stakeholders.
You need to view daily progress and identify if bottlenecks are occurring in the development process.
Which report should you use?
A. Bug Trends
B. Sprint Burndown
C. Cumulative Flow
D. Release Burndown
Answer: C
Explanation: Kanban teams prefer to use a Cumulative Flow Diagram to visualize work across the entire backlog. Visualizing the backlog in this manner can help to identify bottlenecks in the process. Scrum Teams can also use a Cumulative Flow Diagram.

Q48. Your development team uses the Microsoft Visual Studio Scrum 2.0 process template. The team has identified items from the product backlog for the next sprint.
You need to ensure that the team has adequate capacity to complete the next sprint.
Which three actions should you perform? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose three.)
A. Review the sprint Burndown chart.
B. Have the team assign hour estimates to each sprint task.
C. Review the sprint backlog.
D. Assign story points to each item in the product backlog.
E. Review the product backlog with forecast set to On to determine if the sprint can be completed based on the team’s velocity.
F. Set each team member’s per day capacity.
Answer: CEF
Explanation: Sprint Burndown charts can show the team how much work remains in the Sprint. These charts will often include an ideal trend line. This line represents the ideal rate at which the Development Team is able to complete all of the remaining effort, at a constant rate, by the end of the Sprint.
Professional Scrum Development with Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 p.283
Prior to the Sprint, there shouldn’t be any Task work items in the Sprint Backlog. Ideally, the Development Team creates its tasks during the Sprint Planning meeting and not before.
Professional Scrum Development with Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 p.175
The Sprint Backlog contains those items selected by the Development Team plus a plan for delivering them. The Sprint Backlog shows the work remaining in the Sprint at all times.
Professional Scrum Development with Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 p.4
Story points should be already assigned to PBIs during identification for the sprint.
Q49. Your development team is using the Microsoft Solution Framework (MSF) for Capability Maturity Model Integration (CM MI) Process Improvement 6.0 process template.

Q50. You are utilizing the Microsoft Visual Studio Scrum 2.0 process template.
You lead a development team that includes business analysts, developers, and testers.
You need to capture requirements and acceptance criteria. You also need to ensure that requirements and criteria can be versioned and tracked against individual test cases.
What should you do?
A. Create a document that details the requirements and acceptance tests. Store the document in TFS source control.
B. Create a document that details the requirements and acceptance tests. Store the document in the SharePoint site associated with the team project.
C. Add product backlog item (PBI) work items.
D. Create a spreadsheet that details the requirements and acceptance tests. Store the spreadsheet in TFS source control.
Answer: C
Explanation: In Team Foundation Server, the Product Backlog Item (PBI) work item type enables the Scrum Team to capture all of these various requirements with as little documentation as possible. In fact, only the title field is required. Later, as more detail emerges, the PBI can be updated to include business value, acceptance criteria, and the Development Team’s latest estimation of effort.
