Creating a Scrum Project

Background

Scrum is a typical agile development method. Under the Scrum framework, the entire development process is divided into several short sprints, each of which usually lasts for 1 to 4 weeks.

• Product backlog is used to manage requirements, which are written as stories and sorted by business value.
• Requirements top on the backlog are scheduled in a sprint by a Scrum team.

  The Scrum team discusses, analyzes, and assesses requirements and develops a corresponding task list called sprint backlog in a sprint planning meeting.

• At the end of each sprint, the Scrum team outputs deliverable product increments.
• Scrum work items are organized in the descending hierarchy: epics > features> stories > tasks or bugs.
