What is 'backlog refinement' (also called backlog grooming) in Scrum?
Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: The ongoing activity of reviewing, detailing, estimating, and prioritizing backlog items to prepare them for upcoming sprints

Explanation

Backlog refinement is an ongoing activity (not a formal ceremony) where the team and product owner review backlog items: clarifying requirements, breaking large items into smaller ones, estimating story points, and ensuring high-priority items are detailed enough for upcoming sprint planning. Well-refined backlog items make sprint planning more efficient and reduce mid-sprint clarification needs.
