Product Backlog

An emergent, ordered list of what is needed to improve the product; the single source of work undertaken by the Scrum Team.

Definition

Its commitment is the Product Goal. The PO is accountable for its content, ordering, and transparency. It is never complete and evolves as the product and environment change.

Example

Items include features, defects, technical work, and knowledge acquisition.

Exam tip

The Product Backlog is ordered, not merely prioritized; one backlog per product.
