Day 1 of Agile Training Recap

1. Understanding the why is critical. Why am I writing this piece of software?

2. After planning the acceptable criteria or what it means to be done should be clearly defined.

3. Scrum meetings are not a status meeting but a team meeting.

Day 2 of Agile Training Recap

1. What is the role of a product owner and a scrum master. Prioritize work, help the team with processes. "A good scrum master is working themselves out of a job"

2. What is an epic? Feature? Story? Task?

3. What are earned value metrics. How many story points are completed is very different than let's say DOORA metrics.

4. More stuff about story points.

5. 5. Take vertical slices not horizontal slices. Basically integrate up front.
