Introduction to Scrum – Part 1

Agile Software development is any development environment that follows the twelve principles of the Agile Manifesto. Different ways of applying these principles are called frameworks. Some of the more popular Agile frameworks are Scrum, Kanban, and Extreme Programming. The Scrum framework follows several theories and values and sticks to a specific team build.

By anticipating the different parts of the Scrum framework, and its differences from traditional programming, developers can work more efficiently. When developers know what to expect of themselves, and of the Scrum team, they can focus on creating working software.

What is Scrum?

Scrum is a framework of Agile software development that can work equally well for both large and complex projects and small and simple projects. Because of its adaptive nature, Scrum is attractive to many different organizations. Whether the organization needs to build small projects, large projects, or a mix of both, Scrum works for any size and complexity.

Scrum teams can work for months or even years on large software products. Many Agile frameworks might slow their pace over time because of technical debt or other hurdles. Scrum allows time and meetings to planning and problem-solving. By working through several sprints, a Scrum team develops a velocity. The velocity is the average number of story points that the team delivers each sprint.
