- 26. Product Backlog: This isan ordered list of ideas for the product, which can come from the product owner, team members, or stakeholders. A description and estimate of effort complement each product backlog item. The product backlog is ordered to maximize the value delivered by the Scrum team. The development teams work comes from the product backlog, and nowhere else. Every feature, enhancement, bug fix, documentation requirement, every bit of work the team does comes from a product backlog item . The product backlog typically begins short and becomes longer and more defined as time goes on. Product backlog items soon will be "refined," which means they will further clarified, defined, and split into smaller chunks. Though the product owner is responsible for maintaining the product backlog, the development team helps produce and update it. 26
- 27. Sprint Backlog: The sprintbacklog is the list of refined product backlog items chosen for development in the current sprint, together with the teams plan for accomplishing the work. It reflects the teams forecast of what work can be completed. Once the sprint backlog is established, the development team begins work on the new product increment. 27
- 28. Product Increment Everysprint produces a product increment, the most important Scrum artifact. A product Increment is the "goal line" for each sprint and, at the end of the sprint, it must: Be of high enough quality to be given to users. Meet the Scrum team's current definition of done. Be acceptable to the product owner. 28
- 29. Task boards: Taskboards allow transparency, display what is the live status of the teams work and focus area: Simple task board has backlog , To-do, in progress and done status. There are various format. Team design their best “Information Radiators” that helps them in self-organizing. 29
- 30. Burn down Chart: For current sprint, it shows the total estimated work remaining for the entire forecasted sprint backlog against time: Updated by team, regularly and continuously. Independent of the work, it represents total remaining estimated time to market to achieve sprint goal. 30
