Scrum Events. What is the purpose of the Daily Scrum?

For the Scrum Team and stakeholders to discuss what was done in the Sprint. Attendees then collaborate on the next things that could be done to optimize value. A Sprint Review is held at the end of the Sprint to inspect the Increment and adapt the Product Backlog if needed. During the Sprint Review, the Scrum Team and stakeholders collaborate about what was done in the Sprint. Based on that and any changes to the Product Backlog during the Sprint, attendees collaborate on the next things that could be done to optimize value. This is an informal meeting, not a status meeting, and the presentation of the Increment is intended to elicit feedback and foster collaboration.

What is the purpose of the Definition of done?

The Definition of Done is a formal description of the state of the Increment when it meets the quality measures required for the product. it allows the team to know when tasks are fully completed and can be used as a demo

The Increment is the sum of all the Product Backlog items completed during a Sprint (including the items completed in previous sprints). Useable, releasable product and meets acceptance criteria and definition of done

What is scrum of scrums?

The Scrum of scrums is a method of co-ordinating teams and is used to grow and synchronise the scrum framework within a company to huge scale. It is a terminology used for scaled agile technologies, which is required to control and collaborate with multiple scrum teams. It is best used in situations where teams are collaborating on complex assignments. The scrum of scrums is a meeting held to co-ordinate a set of inter-related scrum teams. The power and ability to scale is in the fact that one representative from each related team attends the scrum of scrums meeting. By doing this an organisation can co-ordinate hundreds of people on different teams. It is also used to ensure that the required transparency, collaboration, adaption, and adoption are established and to ensure that the products are deployed and delivered.
