Get ready for the Scrum Master test after your course with timed practice tests, every part of Scrum covered and an explanation for every option.
The Certified ScrumMaster credential is for people stepping into the Scrum Master role. You earn it by completing a course with an approved trainer, then passing an online test.
The test checks that you understand Scrum as it is defined today: the accountabilities, events, artifacts and commitments, the values and empiricism, and how a Scrum Master serves the team, the Product Owner and the organisation. It is open book, so the simulator's questions test understanding in a situation rather than look-up.
