We adopted a very basic Scrum-like project management system to help us through a multi-month software platform transition we are doing. We have a SharePoint list to hold the Project Backlog (Epics) and a physical whiteboard (To Do, Doing, Done) to display the stories for each Sprint.<br />
<br />
A question/disagreement came up about the location of a verification step, which we want to add. The project manager wanted it added in the Project Backlog and I took the position that it should be included in each Sprint as the Backlog is just for reference, not for process.<br />
<br />
Simple question: where should the Verify step go: Backlog or Sprint?

Scrum verification step: project backlog or sprint?

Project management is the discipline of carefully projecting or planning, organizing, motivating and controlling resources to achieve specific goals and meet specific success criteria. A project is a temporary endeavor designed to produce a unique product, service or result with a defined beginning and end (usually time-constrained, and often constrained by funding or deliverables) undertaken to meet unique goals and objectives, typically to bring about beneficial change or added value.

Project Management

Scrum is a term that refers to an agile framework for managing work-related tasks. It’s usually implemented in IT or technology companies where work involves the development and release of products, software, updates to existing systems, and websites. Departments using this framework break down their work into actionable tasks to be completed within a set period of time. The Scrum framework has evolved to be used in other innovative industries.
