Which two topics are the Developers accountable for, as coached by the Scrum Master?

Developers in a Scrum team are indeed accountable for creating a plan for the Sprint and adhering to a Definition of Done. This reflects their responsibility in ensuring that the work they commit to during Sprint Planning is manageable and feasible within the time frame of the Sprint. The plan for the Sprint typically includes what product backlog items they aim to complete and how they will achieve that, allowing for effective management of their workload and ensuring alignment with the goals of the Sprint.

Additionally, adhering to a Definition of Done is crucial as it establishes a clear understanding of what it means for work to be considered complete. It serves as a standard that the team agrees upon and helps ensure quality and clarity in the deliverables. By maintaining this agreement, Developers can confidently deliver increments of the product that meet the necessary quality standards and stakeholder expectations.

The other topics listed can involve the responsibilities of the Development Team, but they do not encapsulate the core accountability of the Developers as coached by the Scrum Master in a direct manner. While communication with stakeholders, organizing the Product Backlog, conducting Daily Scrums, and reporting progress are important aspects of the Scrum process, the specific accountability for planning the Sprint work and maintaining the Definition of Done lies primarily with the Developers themselves.
