What is Sprint?

Quick Definition

A fixed time period (typically 1-4 weeks) during which a team commits to completing a specific set of work items.

How it works

Sprints create a rhythm for teams. By committing to a defined scope for a short period, teams can focus without scope creep, deliver predictable results, and regularly reflect on their process. The key constraint is that sprint scope shouldn't change once started.

Sprint in practice

A team commits to 8 tasks for a 2-week sprint. They track progress daily and demo results at the end. If something wasn't finished, it rolls to the next sprint—no extensions.
