Frequently asked question

Scrum is an agile framework that facilitates iterative and incremental project management, emphasizing flexibility, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

The key roles in Scrum include the Scrum Master, who facilitates the team's adherence to Scrum principles, the Product Owner, responsible for maximizing the value of the product, and the Development Team, which delivers increments of work during sprints.

Scrum events include Sprint Planning, where the team plans the work to be performed in the sprint, Daily Stand-ups for daily synchronization, Sprint Reviews to inspect the increment, and Sprint Retrospectives to improve processes.

Scrum artifacts include the Product Backlog, which lists all desired work on the project, the Sprint Backlog, detailing the work to be done in the sprint, and the Increment, the sum of all the completed product backlog items from previous sprints.

Scrum differs by focusing on iterative development, frequent inspection and adaptation, self-organizing teams, and collaboration with stakeholders throughout the project.
