  • BIt is determined by the Scrum Master
  • CThe prodct has passed QA and has all of the required release documentation
  • DThe definition of "Done" is one that would allow the development work to be ready for a release.

Explanation

In Scrum, the Definition of Done (DoD) is a shared, formal description of the state of the Increment when it meets the quality standards required for the product. The key criterion is that the Increment must be potentially releasable — not just passing QA or having documentation (too narrow), not defined by the Scrum Master alone, and not simply whatever pleases the Product Owner. Option D captures the essential purpose: work is Done when it could be released.
