Stand-Up Scenario (just my vision)

Here is one of the visions, how could it looks like. StandUp could be different, depends on the team, etc. This is only one of possible formats.


StandUp is +- 15 min meeting, which is going at the beginning of the business day (could be at the end, but 99% - at the beginning :)).

Participants
Required Participants - Development Team

Invariants

-No Cell Phones
-No Computers
-No chairs
-Only one talk same time, other listen
-Only Required Participants are able to talk on the Meeting. All other can only listen.

Rules

Each member of the Development Team (or one from pair) should answer on several questions -

1. What have I done since last StandUp?
2. For which tasks we are out of Estimation?
3. What could be tested by the Test Team? - This one is new question and should give for Test team clearer vision on completed tasks.
4. Which blocks do I have? - Only small items should be solved during meeting. All other should be written down and discussed right after meeting.
5. What I am planning to do till the next StandUp?

There are several additional things which should be done by the team during the StandUp -

1. During answering on the question 1 team member should check that all closed tasks are marked on the Lists on the Wall and if not - update it
2. During answering on the question 5 team member should check that new tasks are marked on the Lists on the Wall and if not - update it
