Pick an answer below — you'll get the explanation instantly, no signup.

An adaptive team is conducting a sprint review. The product owner says three completed stories are 'good enough' even though they don't fully meet the acceptance criteria. What should the Scrum Master do?
Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: Facilitate a discussion about the DoD and acceptance criteria; stories that don't meet acceptance criteria are NOT done and should not be accepted, regardless of 'good enough' language

Explanation

Accepting work that doesn't meet defined acceptance criteria undermines quality standards and the Definition of Done. The Scrum Master should facilitate a clear conversation: are the acceptance criteria wrong (and need updating) or is the work incomplete (and needs to return to the backlog)? If criteria were wrong, update them and check the work against updated criteria. If work is incomplete, it returns to the backlog — not masked as 'good enough.'
