scrum - my review
What is the result of the Sprint Review?
A revised Product Backlog that defines the probable Product Backlog items for the next Sprint.
What happens when a Sprint is cancelled?
All incomplete PBL items are re-estimated and put back on the Product Backlog. Any completed and "done" items are reviewed. If part of the work is potentially releasable, the PO typically accepts it.
What is the Sprint Retrospective?
An opportunity for the Scrum Team to inspect itself and create a plan for improvements to be enacted during the next sprint.

Create a plan for implementing improvements to the way the Scrum team does its work. (NO feedback from stakeholders, get tech advice.)
What are the two essential features a Scrum Team should possess?

What does PBL management include?
