Scrum Product Owner Certification Practice Test 2

Technical debt is a concept in programming that reflects the extra development work that arises when code that is easy to implement in the short run is used instead of applying the best overall solution. In other words it can be defined as the longer term consequences of poor design decisions. Technical debt is a real risk which can genuinely be incurred. It compromises long­-term quality of the Product.One of the ways of handling technical debt is recording it on the Product Backlog. So, it becomes visible to the Scrum Team.
