Scrum Events

The Sprint, Sprint Planning, Daily Scrum, Sprint Review, and Sprint Retrospective.

Definition

Each event is a formal opportunity to inspect and adapt and is timeboxed; the Sprint is a container for the others. Timeboxes for a one-month Sprint: Planning 8 hours, Daily Scrum 15 minutes, Review 4 hours, Retrospective 3 hours (shorter for shorter Sprints).

Example

For a two-week Sprint, Sprint Planning is usually 4 hours or less.

Exam tip

Refinement is an ongoing activity, not a Scrum event.
