The purpose of the Sprint Retrospective is to plan ways to increase quality โ and effectiveness.
The Scrum Team inspects ๐ต๏ธ how the last Sprint went with regards to individuals, interactions, processes, tools, and their Definition of Done. Inspected elements often vary with the domain of work. Assumptions that led them astray are identified ๐ฏ and their origins explored. The Scrum Team discusses what went well ๐ during the Sprint, what problems ๐ it encountered, and how those problems were (or were not) solved ๐ก.
The Scrum Team identifies the most helpful changes ๐ to improve its effectiveness. The most impactful improvements are addressed as soon as possible โ. They may even be added to the Sprint Backlog ๐ for the next Sprint.
The Sprint Retrospective concludes the Sprint. It is timeboxed to a maximum of three hours for a one-month Sprint. For shorter Sprints, the event is usually shorter.
