Backlog
In Agile development, a Backlog is a list of tasks or requirements that needs to be addressed. It is continuously prioritized by the Product Owner to ensure that the team is working on the most valuable features first.
Iterative Development
Iterative Development is a process where the development team works on successive refinements of a product over multiple cycles or iterations, incorporating user feedback and continuously improving the product.
Product Owner
The Product Owner is a role in Scrum responsible for maximizing the value of the product resulting from the work of the development team, managing the Product Backlog, and ensuring the team knows the priority of items.
Scrum Master
The Scrum Master is a role within Scrum tasked with ensuring the team follows agile practices and processes, helps to remove impediments, facilitates meetings, and supports the Product Owner.
Continuous Integration
Continuous Integration is a software development practice where developers regularly merge their code changes into a central repository, after which automated builds and tests are run.
User Story
A User Story is a tool used in Agile development to capture a description of a software feature from an end-user perspective. It helps create a simplified description of a requirement.
Sprint Review
A Sprint Review is a Scrum ceremony where the team presents the completed work to stakeholders at the end of each Sprint, allowing them to provide feedback and influence the next Sprint's goals.
Agile Manifesto
The Agile Manifesto is a document that identifies four fundamental values and twelve principles to guide software development: individuals and interactions, working software, customer collaboration, and responding to change.
Story Points
Story Points are a unit of measure used to estimate the total effort required to fully implement a product backlog item or any other piece of work. They help to prioritize and predict how much work can be completed in a Sprint.
Sprint
A Sprint is a time-boxed period (generally 2-4 weeks) in which a specific set of work has to be completed and made ready for review in the Scrum framework.
Burndown Chart
A Burndown Chart is a graphical representation used in Scrum to show the amount of work remaining in a Sprint or release, and it helps teams understand their progress and pace.
Daily Stand-Up
A Daily Stand-Up is a short meeting held every day during a Sprint in Scrum framework, where team members report progress, plans for the day, and any impediments to their work.
Velocity
Velocity in Agile development is a measure of the amount of work a team can complete during a single Sprint and is used for planning and measuring team performance over time.
Kanban
Kanban is a visual workflow management method that is used to visualize and manage the processing of work items in software development. It emphasizes continuous delivery while not overburdening the development team.
Sprint Retrospective
The Sprint Retrospective is a meeting where the Scrum team reflects on the past Sprint to discuss what was successful, what issues arose, and how processes can be improved for the next Sprint.
Cross-functional Team
A Cross-functional Team is composed of individuals with different expertise and skills, working towards a common goal within an Agile framework, allowing for rapid development and high adaptability.
Minimum Viable Product (MVP)
A Minimum Viable Product is the most pared-down version of a product that can still be released. It has just enough features to satisfy early adopters and to provide feedback for future development cycles.
Scrum
Scrum is an agile framework that facilitates teamwork on complex products through iterative development cycles called Sprints, a set of roles, and frequent reassessment of ongoing work.
