How Does Scrum Work?

A Scrum process is distinguished from other agile processes by specific concepts and practices, divided into the three categories of Roles (product ownerscrum master, development team and other stakeholder), events, artifacts, and rules.

To start a Scrum process, a product owner creates a prioritized wish list called a product backlog. During sprint planning the backlog is sized for complexity and business value (priority). The product owner (client) and the development team determine which backlog items get added to the sprint. The team has a certain amount of time (called a sprint, usually two to four weeks) to complete its work, but it meets each day to assess its progress (daily Scrum). Along the way, the Scrum Master keeps the team focused on its goal. At the end of the sprint the team reviews their progress, shows the client the working product, and reviews what went well or what they need to improve on for the next sprint.  Then the cycle repeats.
