Scrum is an iterative and incremental Agile methodology for managing software development.

Values

The three pillars of scrum summarize the base values of the philosophy of scrum. These are

• Transparency - anyone can see any part of the project
• Inspection - frequent inspection of work products and progress to detect undesirable deviations from expectation
• Adaptation - if deviation is detected, the team must adapt and adjust to correct the problem

Timeline

The project timeline consists of a sequence of consecutive sprints. At fixed points of every sprint scrum events (like sprint review or daily scrum) take place.

Scrum roles

Scrum defines its own set of roles for a scrum team.
