In Scrum, what is the outcome of Sprint Review?

The outcome of a Sprint Review is a revised Product Backlog. During the Sprint Review, the Scrum Team presents the work completed during the Sprint to stakeholders, who provide feedback and insights. This collaborative session allows the team to discuss what was done, what went well, and what could be improved in future Sprints.

The main focus of the Sprint Review is to inspect the Increment and adapt the Product Backlog based on feedback from stakeholders. This ensures that the team continues to work on the most valuable features, while also addressing any changes in market conditions, customer requests, or project priorities. The input from the discussion may lead to adding new items, updating existing ones, or modifying priorities to reflect the current understanding of what is needed to deliver value.

Creating a detailed project plan is not an outcome of the Sprint Review because Scrum promotes adaptive planning rather than exhaustive upfront planning. Delivering a new complete product is also not the goal of the Sprint Review, as Sprints typically produce an Increment rather than a finished product. Furthermore, while discussing impediments may occur during the Review, the formal identification and resolution of impediments are generally the focus of the Daily Scrum and not the Sprint Review.

Thus, the key outcome is the adaptation of the Product Backlog
