  1. Scrum is an incremental, iterative, and one of the widely used agile frameworks which emphasize a cross-functional team frequently delivering a meaningful shippable product in a short duration of time. Scrum Methodology works by breaking a large product/project into smaller deliveries. By doing this scrum promotes faster feedback, incremental product delivery, faster time to market, and better visibility of the product. Scrum teams plan a delivery based on business priorities and needs, develop them over a fixed timeframe and deliver it. And this continues till the entire backlog is delivered.

  2. Benefits of Scrum Methodology: With frequent delivery based on priority and feedback, Scrum methodology achieved high alignment of business with IT, adapting to business changes, early risk identification, and reduction of waste. Scrum makes businesses innovate faster, convert ideas to deliver quickly, and drive higher customer satisfaction. Scrum also promotes key business driving factors like Predictability, Transparency, Visibility, and Quality.

  3. Sprint and Duration: A key decision to take when Scrum methodology is adopted, is to identify and fix the duration of an iteration. An iteration is called SPRINT. Sprint duration is decided based on : Number of feedback needed — Shorter the duration of the sprint, more is the number of feedback the team can get 2. Requirement Certainty — If the requirements are uncertain, shorter sprints help in less wastage of work 3. Team’s confidence in delivering a meaningful outcome — If the team is confident in delivering a meaningful outcome ( Shippable product ) in two weeks, the sprint duration should be two weeks

  4. Roles Of Scrum: An ideal Scrum team consists of 3 roles, “Product Owner” — who is the visionary of the product, sets priorities, owns the backlog, “Scrum Master” — who maintains agile mindset within the team, facilitated the ceremonies and helps team resolve impediments, “Development Team’’ — which is cross-functional and are the actual doers/developers.

  5. Scrum Ceremonies: As per the Scrum guide, there are three ceremonies any scrum team should follow and one optional ceremony. ● Sprint Planning — Happens on Day one of the sprintss with the intention to plan the iteration deliverables. PO sets the priorities and goals based on the business needs, the development team estimates the work items and discusses the work items in detail. At the end of the ceremony, a sprint backlog is created and agreed upon ● Daily Scrum Meeting: Happens every day at the same time in the same place for not more than 15 minutes. The intention is to check the sprint progress and the team’s confidence in achieving the sprint goal. ● Sprint Grooming / Backlog Grooming: An optional ceremony that is done in the middle of every sprint. The intention is to understand what is coming up in the next sprint at a high level and to highlight dependencies/blockers to be resolved before starting the next sprint.

  6. ● Sprint Review / Demo: Happens on the last day of the sprint. The intention is for the development team to demo the work items planned or showcase a working software and to collect feedback on the work completed ● Sprint Retrospection: This happens after the Sprint Review on the last day. The purpose is for the team to identify ways to improve themselves, process and tools/artefacts

  7. Scrum Artifacts and Reports: Some of the commonly used reports and artefacts in Scrum methodology are, ● Product Backlog — A unidirectional list of prioritised work to be done by the development team. ● Sprint Backlog — A part of the product backlog planned by the development team in an iteration to achieve a goal. ● Burndown Chart — A report that helps the team to visualise their progress during the sprint. Also helps in predicting sprint level failures ● Velocity Chart — A report which helps in understanding the team’s average capacity of doneness of work. Helps in predicting the team’s ability to complete the backlog ● Cumulative Flow Diagram — A report to visualise the workflow across the project/sprint. ● Control Chart — A report to understand the team’s average cycle time and its trend ● Release burndown chart — A report to visualise the work done in a particular release. Also helps predict the milestone completion based on the team’s current capacity.
