PMI. This is said to be a one-in-all Agile Certification that encompasses the
overall umbrella of Agile practices knowledge and understanding for all the
roles in Project Management. As agile is also a set of methodologies,
frameworks and practices, the PMI-ACP® certification tests you on the multiple
aspects and does not restrict to any particular methodology (like Scrum,
Kanban, XP, etc.) or role (like Product Owner, Agile Coach, Scrum Master, etc.)

The PMI-ACP spans many approaches to agile such as Scrum, Kanban, Lean, extreme programming (XP) and test-driven development (TDD).
