What does the Sprint Backlog consist of?

  1. A detailed project timeline

  2. The workflow for the product development

  3. Selected items needed to achieve the Sprint Goal

  4. A complete list of team member tasks

The correct answer is: Selected items needed to achieve the Sprint Goal

The Sprint Backlog is an essential part of the Scrum framework, consisting of a list of selected items that the Scrum Team commits to completing during the Sprint, in alignment with the Sprint Goal. These items are typically drawn from the Product Backlog, which contains all the desired work for the product. The focus of the Sprint Backlog is not on detailed project timelines or the comprehensive task list of each team member; rather, it emphasizes collaboration and flexibility. The items included are actionable, meaning they are broken down into tasks that can be accomplished within the Sprint's time frame, allowing the team to self-organize and adapt as needed to reach the Sprint Goal effectively. The Sprint Backlog serves as a dynamic document, reflecting the current understanding of the work required to achieve the goals of the Sprint, and adjusts as more is learned throughout the development process. This adaptability helps ensure that the team remains focused and responsive throughout the Sprint.
