Agile & Scrum Flashcards
SAFe
The Scaled Agile Framework®, also known as SAFe®, is a set of guidelines for implementing agile and lean principles at scale. It is one of several frameworks used at the enterprise level. Others include Disciplined Agile Delivery (DaD), Large Scale Scrum (LeSS), and Nexus.
Nexus
Nexus is a framework that drives to the heart of scaling by minimizing cross-team dependencies and integration issues.

LeSS
Large Scale Scrum
- a single Product Backlog (because it’s for a product, not a team),
- one Definition of Done for all teams,
- one Potentially Shippable Product Increment at the end of each Sprint,
- one Product Owner,
- many complete, cross-functional teams (with no single-specialist teams),
- one Sprint.

- Responding to change over following a plan
What is Spike in Scrum?
Spikes are an invention of Extreme Programming (XP), are a special type of user story that is used to gain the knowledge necessary to reduce the risk of a technical approach, better understand a requirement, or increase the reliability of a story estimate. A spike has a maximum time-box size as the sprint it is contained in it. At the end of a sprint, the spike will be determined whether is done or not-done just like any other ordinary user story. A Spike is a great way to mitigate risks early and allows the team to ascertain feedback and develop an understanding of an upcoming PBI’s complexity.
