  6. Scrum - Overview • Two-week iterations, called sprints. • Product is releasable at the end of each sprint • Three roles: Product owner, scrum master, team member • Product owner is responsible for maintaining the product backlogin priority order • Team is responsible for completing the tasks taken into the sprint, and for communicating any impediments to the scrum master • Scrum master is responsible for ensuring the team is not impeded • Typically 3-8 team members.

  7. Scrum - Grooming • Typically once a week • Product owner’s time to interact with the team – can use it however he or she wishes • Most often used to estimate the complexity of items in the product backlog (possibly breaking them down into subtasks in doing so). This is done in story points.

  8. Scrum – Sprint planning • Product owner presents the top of the product backlog to the team • Team takes in as many items off the top of the product backlog as it has capacity for • Capacity is determined by the team’s average velocity over the past few sprints • Estimation and other grooming-like activities can also take place during this meetingif necessary to plan the sprint • Once agreed to, the sprint plan is fixed. Any additional items must wait until the next sprint. • The exception to this is high-priority bug fixes, which are taken immediately.

  9. Scrum – Daily Standups • Team members get together each morning and briefly state the following: • Yesterday, I helped the team by … • Today, I will help the team by … • I have/do not have impediments to my work on sprint tasks. (If yes, details) • I have/have not become aware of any emergent requirements to complete sprint tasks. (If yes, details) • I am/am not confident about the team successfully completing the sprint. (If not, concerns) • Typically the sprint task board is displayed during the standup
