Scrum is an agile framework in which a small team delivers work in fixed length sprints, guided by a product owner and a scrum master, with regular planning, review and retrospective meetings.
Scrum defines three roles: the product owner, who orders the product backlog; the scrum master, who helps the team follow the process and removes obstacles; and the developers, who do the work. Work happens in sprints, usually one to four weeks long.
The Scrum events
- Sprint planning chooses the work for the sprint.
- The daily stand-up keeps everyone in sync.
- The sprint review shows the result to stakeholders.
- The retrospective improves how the team works.
