Artifacts in the Scrum Framework

List of Artifacts in the Scrum  Framework

1. The Product Backlog
2. The Sprint Backlog
3. The Increment

Product Backlog :

The product backlog is a prioritized features list, containing short descriptions of all functionality desired in the product. When using Scrum, it is not necessary to start a project with a lengthy, upfront effort to document all requirements. Typically, a Scrum team and its product owner begin by writing down everything they can think of easily. This agile backlog is almost always more than enough for a first sprint. The Scrum product backlog is then allowed to grow and change as more is learned about the product and its customers.

Sprint Backlog :

The Sprint Backlog consists of the necessary tasks to realize the final accepted a version of the Selected Product Backlog. The team uses it to synchronize its activities. The tasks turn the Selected Product Backlog into working product functionality.

Increment:

Increment = [all backlog items done in this sprint ] + [increments done in all previous sprints]

An increment must always be in “done” and usable condition.
