Scrum tools – Scrumy

Filed Under Uncategorized | Posted on September 30, 2009




Scrum is an approach to Project Management that is very different from the traditional models such as waterfall, and is an agile development method. Scrum involves integrating a cross-functional team into one cohesive team that delivers software as per defined intervals known as Sprints. The set of features that are used to define a Sprint are derived from a product ‘backlog’, in a meeting where the Product Owner states the features that he/she wants completed in the Sprint. An integral part of this approach is that the team understands that feature definition has a very high chance of changing during the cycle.
A tool used for Scrum should be able to demonstrate this required flexibility. One of the tools that can be used is called ‘Scrumy’ (link to site).
