Deliverables Agreement
The agreement of working deliverables is a decision made by the Product Owner as a representative of the Scrum team, and the stakeholders. However, the Product Owner does not always know everything about the deliverables. Since developers are in charge of writing code, they may often know more about the deliverables than the Product Owner. As such, developers are important in the agreement decision.
Developers most frequently play a part in how deliverables will be broken up or grouped for sprints. If one deliverable is particularly large, it may need to be broken up into multiple pieces. Developers know best where the division should be made.
A knowledgeable developer can break apart a single deliverable into pieces that each give value. Instead of waiting for multiple sprints without added value to the total software, customers get small chunks and features over time.
