What is Sprint Planning?
A Scrum ceremony at the start of each sprint where the team selects items from the product backlog and commits to delivering them within the sprint. It aligns the team on goals, effort, and shared understanding before work begins.
My perspective
In practice
Effective sprint planning is time-boxed, focused on a clear sprint goal, and results in a realistic commitment the team believes in. The product owner sets priorities; the team owns the "how."
