Scrum is an Agile Software Development methodology. Focusing on communication, Scrum is utilized to achieve effective delivery of complex software projects. It enables high-quality software by scheduling regular incremental releases. Customers are closely involved in the process and are encouraged to review and change priorities, based on their changing business needs and users’ feedback.
The Scrum methodology includes three key parts:
Time-boxed meetings with the client at the start and finish of a sprint
A 15-minute Daily Scrum meeting
“Acceptance Criteria” and “Definition of Done”, for developers to affirm that a feature is completed
In Scrum, the client, who is also known as the Product Owner, re-prioritizes tasks at the beginning of each sprint so that the Scrum team is always working on the most important features of the product. Meanwhile, the Scrum will be facilitated by a Scrum Master who is accountable for removing any impediments that the team may face.
Lastly, the Development Team should be a self-organized team that consists of professionals who do the work of delivering a potentially releasable Increment of “Done” product at the end of each Sprint. Only members of the Development Team create the Increment.
