May 2, 2024

A Scrum project schedule is comprised of a sequence of Sprints that are designed to address the product backlog.
The initial Scrum project schedule is similar to conventional project schedules. However, as the project progresses it becomes much more iterative and fluid in nature. It is designed around required product attributes that are defined by a product release feature set. A product backlog represents the items that need to be completed during the project to attain the functionality that enables the release features.
The product backlog is addressed by a series of Sprints that are usually from 1–4 weeks in duration. During a Sprint a team focuses on a single task (or sometimes multiple tasks) until it is complete or the Sprint’s time has elapsed. The project schedule represents a list of end-to-end Sprints, and their associated time frames, that lead to project completion.
