What is a daily stand-up (Daily Scrum)?
Options
- A short daily meeting (15 min) to sync and plan (Correct option)
- A weekly one-hour report given to executives
- A sports activity that the team does at lunch
- A code review session held at the end of each day
Answer
A short meeting every day (15 minutes in Scrum) where the team syncs on progress and plans the next 24 hours
Why
The Scrum Guide describes the Daily Scrum as a 15-minute event for the Developers of the team. It is held every working day at the same time and place.
Common questions: what did I do, what will I do next, what blocks me?
Its purpose is to inspect progress toward the Sprint Goal and adapt the plan, not to report to a manager.
Remember
Daily Scrum = 15 minutes, every day, team sync.
