                           http://agilemanifesto.org/principles.html

                                                                7
Overview of Agile and Scrum

                                 What is Scrum

   Scrum is an Agile framework that
    supports lightweight processes that
    emphasize:
       Incremental deliveries
       Quality of Product
       Continuous improvement
       Discovery of people’s potential
   Scrum is simple to understand,
    requires discipline in order to be
    successful
   Scrum is not a methodology


                                                                8
Overview of Agile and Scrum


                         Foundations of Scrum
   Empiricism
       Detailed up-front planning and defined processes are replaced
        by just-in-time Inspect and Adapt cycles
   Self-Organization
       Small teams manage their own workload and organize
        themselves around clear goals and constraints
   Prioritization
       Do the next right thing
   Rhythm
       Allows teams to avoid daily noise and focus on delivery
   Collaboration
       Leaders and customers work with the Team, rather than
        directing them


                                                                        9

Editor's Notes

  1. Test
  2. Doing Scrum mechanics without these values misses the point. These values are not unique to Scrum, but the Scrum Framework is built on top of these values.
  3. Cross-Functional = Dev, QA, Bus Analyst, UI Designer, Architect
  4. done in two meetings. Requirements Workshop and Design Workshop Can also have Pre-Planning (Estimation) and Product Backlog Grooming meeting If commitment is inaccurate (either under-commit or over-commit), then stories are to be added or removed. Team would then reflect in the Retrospective and accordingly adjust their upcoming commitments
  5. Story Tasks (Things to Do) Work in Progress (WIP) Blocked/Impeded Done
