Study Notes
Agile Scrum Methodology
- Agile Scrum is a project management approach, initially for software development, now used for various product creation. It prioritizes customer needs.
- Agile Scrum combines the overarching philosophy of Agile with the specific methodology of Scrum.
Agile Philosophy
- Agile is a broader philosophy, not a specific methodology. Its core values are:
- Individuals and interactions over processes and tools (collaboration and adaptation)
- Working software over comprehensive documentation (results over paperwork)
- Customer collaboration over contract negotiation (people over processes)
- Responding to change over following a plan (adaptability)
- Agility is crucial in constantly evolving environments (software development and beyond).
- Agile is valuable for adapting to uncertainty.
Scrum Methodology
- Scrum is the methodology used to implement Agile's philosophy, producing stakeholder-focused results.
- Scrum employs a team approach, with key roles including:
- Product Owner: Represents the client's vision, sets priorities, supervises development, and understands client needs.
- Scrum Master: Guides and supports the development team, promotes best practices, and maintains focus.
- Development Team: A group of specialists collaborating on the project, with diverse skills.
- Projects are divided into short, manageable cycles called "sprints," typically 2-4 weeks in duration.
Scrum Sprints
- Sprints deliver demonstrable, valuable results for the customer. Sprints include four "ceremonies":
- Sprint Planning: Discussing timelines, goals, and learning from previous sprints.
- Daily Scrum: A daily meeting for team alignment, problem-solving, and progress tracking.
- Sprint Review: Presenting progress, discussing successes/failures, and improving the process.
- Sprint Retrospective: Gathering feedback on the previous sprint, identifying areas for improvement in future sprints.
Scrum Benefits
- Scrum's continuous cycles allow learning from successes and mitigating issues.
- Scrum is ideal for:
- Complex projects: Breaking down complex tasks into smaller, focused sprints.
- Customer-focused companies: Developing products directly for customer feedback and preferences, improving through continuous collaboration with customers.
- Companies prioritizing results: Delivering demonstrable outputs in each sprint, while adapting during iterations.
