A sprint produces a visible, usable, deliverable product that implements one or more user interactions with the system. The key idea behind each sprint is to deliver the valuable functionality.
Each product increment builds on previous increments. The goal is to complete tasks by the sprint’s delivery date. A sprint is time-boxed development, meaning that the end date for a sprint does not change. The team can reduce delivered functionality during the sprint, but the delivery date cannot change.
During the sprint, the team holds frequent (usually daily) Scrum meetings. These meetings address the observation under consideration. When the team comes together for a short, daily meeting, any slip is immediately obvious to everyone. The meetings involve all teammembers, including those who telecommute. The meetings serve a team-building purpose and bring in even remote contributors, making them feel a part of the group and making their work visible to the rest of the team.
