The easiest way to look at the Product Backlog is a To-do list that features work items (Product Backlog Items) that represent stakeholders' needs that are valuable to the business. The Product Owner is responsible for authoring, managing, and prioritizing the Product Backlog. When ordering the backlog, start by eliminating that which we shouldn't do at all and then order remaining backlog items by considering value, effort, dependencies, risk, and cost of delay. As point#3 considers the order of product backlog by size and risk only, that's why it's incorrect. Which of the following is an example of an increment of working software?
