This document provides an overview of Scrum and agile software development. It defines Scrum as an agile, lightweight process that uses iterative, incremental practices to manage software development. Key aspects of Scrum covered include its origins, framework, roles, ceremonies, artifacts like product and sprint backlogs, and how it compares to other models. Scaling Scrum to larger teams using a "Scrum of Scrums" approach is also discussed.

User Stories
• Instead of Use Cases, Agile project owners do "user stories"
– Who (user role) – Is this a customer, employee, admin, etc.?
– What (goal) – What functionality must be achieved/developed?
– Why (reason) – Why does user want to accomplish this goal?
As a [user role], I want to [goal], so I can [reason].
• Example:
– "As a user, I want to log in, so I can access subscriber content."
• story points: Rating of effort needed to implement this story
– common scales: 1-10, shirt sizes (XS, S, M, L, XL), etc.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/24-scrum-200305001815/85/24-scrum-15-320.jpg)

- 2. 2 What is Scrum? • Scrum: – Is an agile, lightweight process – Can manage and control software and product development – Uses iterative, incremental practices – Has a simple implementation – Increases productivity – Reduces time to benefits – Embraces adaptive, empirical systems development – Is not restricted to software development projects – Embraces the opposite of the waterfall approach… It’s about common sense
- 3. 3 Scrum Origins • Jeff Sutherland – Initial scrums at Easel Corp in 1993 – IDX and 500+ people doing Scrum • Ken Schwaber – ADM – Scrum presented at OOPSLA 96 with Sutherland – Author of three books on Scrum • Mike Beedle – Scrum patterns in PLOPD4 • Ken Schwaber and Mike Cohn – Co-founded Scrum Alliance in 2002, initially within Agile Alliance

- 8. 8 Scrum Framework •Product owner •Scrum Master •Team Roles •Sprint planning •Sprint review •Sprint retrospective •Daily scrum meeting Ceremonies •Product backlog •Sprint backlog •Burndown charts Artifacts
- 9. 9 Scrum Roles – Product Owner • Possibly a Product Manager or Project Sponsor • Decides features, release date, prioritization, $$$ – Scrum Master • Typically a Project Manager or Team Leader • Responsible for enacting Scrum values and practices • Remove impediments / politics, keeps everyone productive – Project Team • 5-10 members; Teams are self-organizing • Cross-functional: QA, Programmers, UI Designers, etc. • Membership should change only between sprints
- 10. 10 "Pigs" and "Chickens" • Pig: Team member committed to success of project • Chicken: Not a pig; interested but not committed A pig and a chicken are walking down a road. The chicken looks at the pig and says, "Hey, why don't we open a restaurant?" The pig looks back at the chicken and says, "Good idea, what do you want to call it?" The chicken thinks about it and says, "Why don't we call it 'Ham and Eggs'?" "I don't think so," says the pig, "I'd be committed but you'd only be involved."
- 11. 11 Sprint Planning Mtg. Sprint planning meeting Sprint prioritization • Analyze/evaluate product backlog • Select sprint goal Sprint planning • Decide how to achieve sprint goal (design) • Create sprint backlog (tasks) from product backlog items (user stories / features) • Estimate sprint backlog in hours Sprint goal Sprint backlog Business conditions Team capacity Product backlog Technology Current product
- 12. 12 Daily Scrum Meeting • Parameters – Daily, ~15 minutes, Stand-up – Anyone late pays a $1 fee • Not for problem solving – Whole world is invited – Only team members, Scrum Master, product owner, can talk – Helps avoid other unnecessary meetings • Three questions answered by each team member: 1. What did you do yesterday? 2. What will you do today? 3. What obstacles are in your way?
- 13. 13 Scrum's Artifacts • Scrum has remarkably few artifacts – Product Backlog – Sprint Backlog – Burndown Charts • Can be managed using just an Excel spreadsheet – More advanced / complicated tools exist: • Expensive • Web-based – no good for Scrum Master/project manager who travels • Still under development
- 14. 14 Product Backlog • The requirements • A list of all desired work on project • Ideally expressed as a list of user stories along with "story points", such that each item has value to users or customers of the product • Prioritized by the product owner • Reprioritized at start of each sprint This is the product backlog
- 15. 15 User Stories • Instead of Use Cases, Agile project owners do "user stories" – Who (user role) – Is this a customer, employee, admin, etc.? – What (goal) – What functionality must be achieved/developed? – Why (reason) – Why does user want to accomplish this goal? As a [user role], I want to [goal], so I can [reason]. • Example: – "As a user, I want to log in, so I can access subscriber content." • story points: Rating of effort needed to implement this story – common scales: 1-10, shirt sizes (XS, S, M, L, XL), etc.
- 16. 16 Sample Product Backlog Backlog item Estimate Allow a guest to make a reservation 3 (story points) As a guest, I want to cancel a reservation. 5 As a guest, I want to change the dates of a reservation. 3 As a hotel employee, I can run RevPAR reports (revenue- per-available-room) 8 Improve exception handling 8 ... 30 ... 50
- 18. 18 Sprint Backlog • Individuals sign up for work of their own choosing – Work is never assigned • Estimated work remaining is updated daily • Any team member can add, delete change sprint backlog • Work for the sprint emerges • If work is unclear, define a sprint backlog item with a larger amount of time and break it down later • Update work remaining as more becomes known

- 21. 21 Sprint Burndown Chart • A display of what work has been completed and what is left to complete – one for each developer or work item – updated every day – (make best guess about hours/points completed each day) • variation: Release burndown chart – shows overall progress – updated at end of each sprint

- 27. 27 The Sprint Review • Team presents what it accomplished during the sprint • Typically takes the form of a demo of new features or underlying architecture • Informal – 2-hour prep time rule – No slides • Whole team participates • Invite the world
- 28. 28 Scalability • Typical individual team is 7 ± 2 people – Scalability comes from teams of teams • Factors in scaling – Type of application – Team size – Team dispersion – Project duration • Scrum has been used on multiple 500+ person projects
