3. Scrum in one page

Agile & Scrum · 40 pages source format

Roles (PO, SM, Developers), artifacts (Product Backlog, Sprint Backlog, Increment), events (Sprint, Planning, Daily, Review, Retro). Learn the skeleton before debating flavors.

What you'll learn

  • Roles
  • Artifacts
  • Sprint as a container

Draw the loop

Sprint Planning → Daily Scrum → work → Sprint Review → Retrospective → next Planning. The Increment is the point.

  • Product Owner — value & backlog order
  • Scrum Master — effectiveness of the process
  • Developers — how to deliver the Increment

Do this now

Sketch the Scrum loop on one page. Annotate who owns each artifact.

Clear?

Increment ≠ “we coded stuff”

A Done Increment is usable and meets DoD. “Almost done” is not an Increment.

Do this now

Define “usable” for your practice product in one sentence.

Clear?
