What process are included in scrum “initiate” phase
Scrum does not have a specific phase called “initiate.” Instead, Scrum is organized into a set of defined events and roles that work together to deliver value incrementally and iteratively as it focuses on iterative development and continuous improvement. The Product Owner and stakeholders initiate the process by creating and maintaining the Product Backlog, and the Scrum Team initiates each Sprint during the Sprint Planning event. The emphasis is on delivering value incrementally and adapting to changing requirements throughout the project.
What is Product Backlog
Product Backlog: A prioritized list of all the work that needs to be done on the project. It includes user stories, features, bugs, and other items. The Product Owner is responsible for maintaining and prioritizing the Product Backlog.
What is Sprint Planning
An event that occurs at the beginning of each Sprint. During this meeting, the Scrum Team selects a set of items from the Product Backlog to work on during the Sprint. The team also defines the Sprint Goal and creates a Sprint Backlog, which is a list of tasks needed to complete the selected items.
What is a Sprint
A time-boxed period (usually 2-4 weeks) during which the Scrum Team works to complete the items from the Sprint Backlog. The team holds daily Scrum meetings to synchronize their work and identify any obstacles or impediments.
What is a Daily Scrum
Daily Scrum, also known as the Daily Standup, is a short daily meeting where the Scrum Team members discuss what they did yesterday, what they plan to do today, and any obstacles they are facing. The goal is to keep everyone informed and aligned.
What is a Sprint Review
At the end of each Sprint, the Scrum Team holds a Sprint Review to demonstrate the completed work to stakeholders and gather feedback. The Product Owner updates the Product Backlog based on this feedback.
What is Sprint Retrospective
The Sprint Retrospective is a meeting held at the end of each Sprint to reflect on the team’s performance and identify areas for improvement. The team discusses what went well and what could be done differently in the next Sprint.
What is a Scrum Master
The Scrum Master is a role responsible for ensuring that the Scrum process is followed correctly, removing impediments, and facilitating communication within the team. The Scrum Master also helps the team continuously improve.
What is a Product Owner
The Product Owner represents the interests of the stakeholders and is responsible for defining and prioritizing the Product Backlog. They work closely with the team to ensure that the highest-priority items are delivered.
