Scrum Sprint

In the ScrumProcess, the larger of two InspectAndAdapt cycles are called Sprints. Sprints are 30-days* (WhyThirtyDays?) in length, and must result in a potentially shippable increment of software. (Of course, when using Scrum on non-software projects this rule would become "must result in something of actual value".)

* Current (2011) texts usually state either 2 or 4 week Sprints.

During the sprint, the ScrumTeam is empowered to do whatever is needed to achieve the SprintGoal.

For the daily InspectAndAdapt cycle, see DailyScrum.

Ham Radio Morse Code operators have 'sprints' where they make as many contacts as possible, at very high speeds. See the Fists CW Club http://www.fists.org for more details.
