Answer / vijaya

Agile Methodology brings the concept of sprint and scrum. A
Sprint is a particular period of time and Scrum can be
tasks assigned to developers to get completed in specified
time. Actually Sprint goes for 2 weeks but depends from
company to company. So, in a given sprint a tester is
assigned a task by the Test lead. The tester to complete
his task in given sprint timeline. Testers task includes
writing of test cases, executing them and assigning
defects. sometimes either the test lead plans your task or
the tester plans his own task like in a given sprint period
how much time needed for writing test cases and executing
them etc., while this process daily stand-up meetings or
Scrum meetings are held to discuss the previous days work
(any risks associated or any thing stopping you in
testing).In stand-up meetings QA Team, someone from
development team or whole team if team number is low,
project manager participate.

There are popular agile methods- Extreme
Programming (XP) and Scrum

Scrum is software development process, it is iterative and incremental frame work for the project management and it is a process frame work which contains set of practices and predefined rules.

The main roles of the scrum are 1.product backlog 2.Release planning 3.sprints 4.Burndown charts and 5.Tracking bugs

1. Product backlog is a high level list that is maintained throughout entire project. It aggregates backlog items
In product backlog the feature list means users, customers, executives, developers and testers the collection of all feature lists is product backlog they think how to make product great.
Hear product owner and scrum masters have key roles of the product.
Product owner: Put the right functions into the product.
Scrum master: Scrum master maintain the project progressing smoothly and every member doing they job right or not and conduct meeting and planning’s and releases.
Developers build the product
And testers make sue to work right
Next come to release planning

2. We work on the feature list the outcome is release backlog

Scrum master provide the rough idea of release. He estimate the work in to the time intervals means hrs and minutes like that
Next sprints

3. Sprints: In agile methodology we come up with the small sprints of work and keep implementing in 2,3 weeks depends this is advantage and we save time and money

Sprints generally range from 3 to 30 lengths depending on project release cycle. In sprints we divide the work into features. Some sprints have big features and some have small features it depending on that

The main goal of the product release is we do 100% work on the sprint, the late finish of sprints indicate project is not going smooth.

4. Burn down charts: It’s a day by day measure project progressing. It shows project is on the track or be late.

5. So what about bugs
We track bugs separately like we kill first sprints of bugs after that sprint, and 2nd sprint of bugs kill after that sprint but if any showstoppers or any high priority bugs are resolved in same sprint, medium and low level bugs will be prioritized in the next coming sprint.
