Fundamental Terminologies Used in the Agile Approach
For the Agile approach, there are some terminologies that everyone who’s using this approach should be aware of.
1. Sprint
This is called the iterations which are carried out in a span of two to four weeks, depending on the severity of the task being worked on.
2. Owner/Product Owner
The Product Owner (PO), a member of the Agile Team, is primarily responsible for maximizing the value provided by the team and making sure that the needs of customers and stakeholders are reflected in the Team Backlog. He takes care of the overall work and communicates the same to business/client members.
3. Scrum Call
A call or meeting is set up on a daily basis to get updates from everyone on the team, getting to know about the progress on each task. For any doubts or requirements, these are sorted during the call. A Scrum call is also known as a stand-up meet or update meeting.
4. Scrum Master
The facilitator is called the scrum master, who is responsible for maintaining all the tasks, logs, and everything – team updates and task updation during the scrum call(standup/update call with the team members)
5. Back-logs
The list of tasks your team intends to finish during a project sprint is called a sprint backlog. During the sprint planning meeting, these items are often taken from the product backlog. By outlining exactly what your team will be doing—and not doing—during each sprint, a clear sprint backlog reduces scope creep.
6. Production Call
When the build is given Good to Go from QA and all teams have given a sign-off for launch. A production call is set up including members from each of these teams to be there for the call. This is done in order to make sure everything during the product is smoothly made life and if in case any urgent need for change it can be taken care of without issues.
Now after getting familiar with all the information, let’s look into the core principles of Agile UX.
