In Scrum, these principles help teams work iteratively, respond to changes, and deliver value in smaller increments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"27\">\n<li><strong>What is the difference between Scrum, Kanban, and SAFe Agile?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Scrum follows time-boxed sprints, Kanban manages a continuous flow of tasks, and SAFe scales Agile practices across multiple teams in large enterprises. Each framework serves different project needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"28\">\n<li><strong>How do you handle a situation where a team is not fully Agile but follows only some Scrum practices?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cI would identify gaps and discuss them with the team to understand challenges.

Testers collaborate with developers to validate features within the sprint. Automated and manual testing help maintain quality, and regression tests confirm previous functionality is not affected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"30\">\n<li><strong>What is the role of a tester in a Scrum team?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>A tester works closely with developers and the Product Owner to identify defects early.

Unlike Scrum, which focuses on a single team, SAFe introduces roles like Release Train Engineer and PI Planning to coordinate work across teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"32\">\n<li><strong>How do you facilitate PI (Program Increment) planning in SAFe Agile?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cI help teams prepare by gathering priorities from stakeholders.
