Sprint backlog
The Sprint Backlog consists of the necessary tasks to realize the final accepted a version of the Selected Product Backlog. The team uses it to synchronize its activities. The tasks turn the Selected Product Backlog into working product functionality.
Normal practice
- Tasks are estimated in hours, usually 1-16
- Tasks with more than 16 hours are broken down before starting working on them
- Team members sign up for tasks, they aren't assigned
- Estimated work remaining is updated daily
- Any team member can add, delete or change the Sprint Backlog (theirs or new)
- Work for the Sprint emerges
- If work is unclear, define a Sprint Backlog with a larger amount of time and break it down later
- Update work remaining as more is known, as items are worked
