Sprint Planning Basics

Team selects User Story from the

product backlog they can commit to

completing

Sprint backlog items are created for the

User Story. Collaboratively.

Repeat until team can no longer commit. (Use velocity as a

check point)

User Story3. Team accepts or declines

story after discussion with Product Owner (NOT a design session)

4. Team creates tasks in hours5. Product Owner continues to

present stories in priority order team capacity is reached

6. Team makes final sprint commitment (Fist of Five)

Daily Scrum

WHAT IT IS

Daily 15 minutes Stand-up Everyone is invited

(this means the whole world)

Helps avoid other unnecessary meetings

WHAT IT IS NOT

Not a status meeting for ScrumMaster

Not for problem solving

Those not in scrum “roles” should not speak (talk to the ScrumMaster after)

Erin Beierwaltes | agileaction.blogspot.com

Page 10: Agile rituals (shared) 05 2011

How is your Daily Scrum going?

Are the engineers talking directly to you?

Do conversations get into detail? Do team members every ask for

help?

Erin Beierwaltes | agileaction.blogspot.com

Page 12: Agile rituals (shared) 05 2011

Sprint Review

Team presents what it accomplished during the sprint (based on the agreed definition of “done”)

Demo of working, live software One demo stories that are “DONE” NO SLIDES Entire team participates Invite the World Final acceptance of stories (velocity) Review backlog and add/modify stories

Erin Beierwaltes | agileaction.blogspot.com

Page 13: Agile rituals (shared) 05 2011

How is your Sprint Review going?

How is your definition of “done”? Who’s attending? Who’s demo-ing every week? Are you leaving acceptance to this

meeting?

How is your Retrospective going?

Do you have action items? Is everyone engaged and giving

ideas? How often does the team follow

through on the action items?
