    68. Scrum vs Kanban - What's the Difference?
    #ScrumVsKanban #AgileScrum #Kanban #DevelopmentThatPays
    Scrum and Kanban are perhaps the best known of a number of Agile software development frameworks. Let's break that down: Software Development, in very broad terms, looks like this: The Product Owner decides what to build, The Development Team builds it, and Customers use it, experience it, benefit from it in some way. What makes software development Agile is that value is delivered to the customer in small increments. And - importantly - feedback is gathered from customers and fed back into the process. It's the Product Owner's job to take input from customers - and from various Stakeholders - and organise it into a prioritised list of features and User Stories. The list is known as the Product Backlog. What happens between the Product Backlog and the Customer is what distinguishes Scrum from Kanban. As we'll see, each has its own routines and rituals. It's this person's job (see below) to help the Product Owner and Development Team to adopt and maintain good habits. In Scrum, the role is known as the Scrum Master. In Kanban, the role is known as the Agile Coach. Something that Scrum and Kanban have in common is that both are PULL systems. Without getting into two much detail, a pull system ensures that work gets from Product Backlog to Customer in the shortest possible time. A pull system also helps to uncover bottlenecks in the process, which helps to ensure that work gets from Product Backlog to Customer in the shortest possible time! As you'll see in a moment, Scrum and Kanban implement the pull system in two strikingly different ways. Scrum ---- Scrum teams work in a series of Sprints, most commonly two weeks in length. Each Sprint it proceeded by a Sprint Planning Meeting, run by the Scrum Master and attended by the Product Owner and the Development Team. Together they select high priority items from the Product Backlog that the Development Team believe it can commit to delivering in a single Sprint. This is the "pull" I was talking about earlier. The selected items are known as the SPRINT BACKLOG. For the next two weeks, the Development Team focuses on working through the items in the Sprint backlog - and ONLY those items in the Sprint backlog: in all but the most exceptional circumstances, any new requirements that arise have to wait for the following Sprint. It's common practice for Scum teams to use a board to track the progress of the work. It's called a Scrum Board... or an Agile Board... or even (slightly confusingly) a Kanban Board. Each day during the Sprint there is a Scrum Meeting: it's a stand up meeting where the team takes a maximum of 15 minutes to discuss progress and identify any "blockers". At the end of the Sprint, the work completed during the Sprint is packaged for release, and any incomplete items are returned to the Product Backlog. The Sprint ends with two rituals: The Sprint Review, which is a demonstration of new functionality to Stakeholders. The Sprint Retrospective, which is an examination of what went well, what went badly and what could be improved. The aim of the Retrospective is to ensure that the next sprint is more efficient and effective than the last. And that's Scrum! Kanban ----- Kanban does a few things differently. There's no two-week sprint: Kanban is a continuous process. And there's no Sprint Backlog; the "pull" system in Kanban happens in a different way, via Work In Progress (WIP) limits. If an Agile Board is useful for Scrum, it's a necessity for Kanban. Each column on the Kanban Board has a Work in Progress limit related to the team's capacity. For example, a team with two developers might set a limit between two a

      I'm guessing they're from the designers who are always left out of any explanation of agile methodologies and who have to put up with clueless delivery managers, scrum masters, product owners, etc. who've never worked with designers before and don't know where they fit into these methodologies. :) I'm just speculating, tho.

(I believe PowerPoint has a similar transition.) I make all of the transitions slow, export the entire presentation to QuickTime, then edit the visuals to the audio in Final Cut Pro.

    Great video! one thing - I think scrum is not a methodology, it's a framework. And not sure if Kanban has such things as standups, as it is coming from Extreme Programming. Is it dictated by Kanban that it should be a part of the framework, like daily scrum in Scrum?

      @Developmentthatpays  Před 5 lety +2

      You're right, you're right: it's a framework not a methodology.
      I'm not sure about what Kanban dictates: Kanban isn't as "codified" as Scrum. For what it's worth, I can tell you that every Kanban team I've been a part of does a daily standup.

    Indeed a very useful video, thank you!
    I've got a question: one of the clearest differences between Kanban & Scrum is that in Kanban, Items are “pulled” directly from the Product Backlog to the Kanban Board. But in Scrum, only selected items are pulled from Product Backlog to the Sprint Backlog (intermediary) first and then pulled into the Agile Board.
    In Kanban, do teams ignore Prioritazation because there is no intermediary like Sprint Backlog? Isn't this bad? In Kanban, while pulling items from Product Backlog to Kanban Board how do teams decide which items should be pulled/developed first, how do they give priority to tasks? Or do they develop tasks randomly, in any way they want?

    • @Developmentthatpays
      @Developmentthatpays  Před 2 lety +3

      What an awesome question! Scrum teams ask the question "what are the next things we should work on?"; Kanban teams ask the question "What's the next thing we should work on?"
      This means that - for a kanban team - the top of the product backlog must be carefully ordered. Some teams add an additional column - between the backlog and Dev - often called "ready". It contains a limited number of ordered items. The Ready column can - and should! change at any time.
      Does that make sense?

      @@Developmentthatpays thanks, it really does. Awesome answer.
      I can see that in Scrum, we are interested in taking itemS in bulk (thingS) from Backlog while in Kanban we take the most important item from the top of the Backlog. (am I right?)
      Another thing is: what's the difference between that "ready" column and the DONE column in Kanban Board?

    • @Developmentthatpays
      @Developmentthatpays  Před 2 lety +1

      You're right... although I'd say it differently. One of the problems that agile helps us with is the (very human) tendency to work on too many things at the same time. Scrum says "work on a strictly limited number of items"; Kanban says "work on just one item".
      The Done column is the final column; the Ready column (if present) is the first column (after the backlog). Take a look at this (section of) video for more on this: czcams.com/video/fgT4AaKcBUA/video.html

      May try to elborate which will help whats in video -
      To Do - backlog or items in bag which a team needs to work. (RAW, may be not in order or sequence). As there is NO PO, so team is best to judge what to pick next (worst thing I feel (as Agile Coach) while working with KANBAN teams)
      Build - Here team is working on some thing, what this means that they have discussed and understood what is asked for and they know how to deliver it.
      Done / Completed / Closed - when the work is all completed and released for end user to test and enjoy this piece.
      Ready column - it fits between To Do and Build column # Ready column helps when a lead is looking on new things or backlog items brining them in sequence so that team can pick immidiate available next item in queue. So team knows that what is next thing they need to work on - similar to Scrum approach you can say.

      This is correct, that PO can present the new requirement and let team judge if they want to work in current sprint or leave it for next sprint.
      Alternatively, it is new, urgent and management wants it as done yesterday - then option is to replace something from current sprint to accomodate immediately.
      Here SM role is support team, push the new thing to next sprint or get something removed to accomodate new item. Otherwise, team will be under pressure.

    When are demos and retrospectives usually performed during Kanban? It was mentioned that Kanban is a continuous process and doesn't have sprints, does that mean that demos and retrospectives are done everytime something is ready to be delivered to the customer?

    • @Developmentthatpays
      @Developmentthatpays  Před 5 lety +7

      It is trickier in kanban, as there's no natural "trigger". Holding a demos and retros at each release would be (potentially) much too frequent. It's up to the team to decide when to to hold demos and retros. (And yes, there's a danger than they won't happen often enough.)

    • @Developmentthatpays
      @Developmentthatpays  Před 4 lety +2

      It's very clear: the Product Owner owns the Product Backlog. But that doesn't mean that she is all-powerful. Here's why: it's the Development Team that gets to choose the items for each Sprint (the Sprint Backlog). And the team is not obliged to pick the top-most items.

    Two years late to the party, but a few comments.
    There are a LOT of misconceptions and dangerous oversimplifications in the video.
    Non-exclusive listing:
    * the role of the Product Owner is exclusive to Scrum, although many non-Scrum team use it as well. It's NOT an "Agile" thing.
    * the role of an "Agile Coach" is not defined in Kanban - how the role is defined in an organization varies widely.
    * a key difference between Scrum and Kanban is that Scrum suggests a single team to have end to end process responsibility, whereas Kanban is neutral to the idea that there could be handovers in the process.
    * Some Scrum teams not only use Kanban boards, but embed Kanban as their method of delivery. Therefore, it's not "confusing" at all when they talk about having a Kanban board.
    * There's nothing in Scrum that forces having a single Release at Sprint End. Many Scrum teams find value in Continuous Delivery/Deployment.
    * Kanban's WIP limits should not only be on individual activities, but on the Value Stream. There's no value in generating WIP that doesn't get processed in a timely manner.
    * One of the key principles in the manifesto for agile software development is daily collaboration between developers and "the business" (i.e. customers). The initial diagram is dangerously oversimplified. If developers don't interact with customers but only deliver what they think solves the backlog item, the result is usually low quality.
    * The way the arrows in the initial diagram look like, this is still a PUSH process, not a PULL process. In a pull process, the arrows would be reversed.
    * It's not called a "ritual", it's called "event" in Scrum - and Kanban prescribes none of them.
    * Kanban is basically a set of principles (such as evolutionary change, customer centricity and self-organization) as well as practices (such as flow management and making policies explicit) that are entirely ignored in the video.
    Sorry for the harsh critique, but I feel Kanban is entirely misrepresented and the proposed differences between the two frameworks could lead teams to decide for an approach under false assumptions.
    Here are the key differences:
    Scrum = build an effective team.
    Kanban = create an effective delivery process.
    That's why you can choose none, either or both.

      I'm broadly in agreement with you. The video was never intended to be a tutorial: it was more about "documenting" real-life teams... making real-life mistakes.
      Having said that, I'm aware that (a) the video has become popular and (b) there is a danger that people are being misled. At some point I'm going to do an "Everything wrong with..." video - and I'll borrow heavily from your comment!

  • @davidroberts3152

    Scrum isn't really a pull process because it doesn't typically prescribe pulling across activities. E.g. Code to Test. Typically when Code is complete it is pushed to a tester.

    • @Developmentthatpays
      @Developmentthatpays  Před 6 lety +1

      Two things:
      1. It's common practice (as you point out) for devs to push to Test. That's always struck me as unfair: the devs get to pull from the backlog; why should they have all the fun? The Test team should be given the same consideration. All it takes is another column (or a buffer zone) on the Agile board .
      2. If you zoom out a bit - and view the tech team as a whole - the pull becomes more evident.

    I just reviewed four videos on Kanban to show my teams interested in Kanban. One was gorgeous but bashes scrum. The other was a snooze fest and missed all the key ideas.
    Your video was the porridge that was just right! I think I communicate better than most, and I could NOT have done it this well, so thank you!
    I have only one criticism. Your definition of agile at the beginning is actually the definition of iterative, not agile. My favorite quote for this, said by my client Andres Borque: Agile = Iterative + Culture.
    What makes Scrum and Kanban Agile is the high trust, self-organizing, transparent, collaborative culture. Delivering smaller increments is a part of agile, but it is also a part of iterative (like RUP) even if you aren't embracing agile.
    Either way, thank you for a great video. I will recommend it be used with the teams at my current client. :)

      If all devs are awesome, they need almost no management, and these meetings are either unnecessary or very fast.
      Back in the real world, that's not the case.
      Sadly, some devs are bad (inept, slow, lazy, whatever). Those ones need more managing - it's rarely as simple as "fire them and get better ones."
      Any methodology that can only work if all the team are way-above-average is seriously flawed. On average, a chunk of the team will be no better than average. Hence the need for these kind of meetings. If the team's good, they don't need or get micromanaged by a decent manager. If there's micro-managing, either the manager or the team are problematic - and it's not always the manager at fault.

      Agile is absolutely not a methodology as it follows no strict guidelines, it is to be used and adapted to the specific requirements of the business owner and the customer. Scrum and Kanban fall under the methodology convention as they have specific guidelines in place that distinguish them from other agile methodologies.

Hence, it's not free - not in my definition of free anyway. I understand the reasoning behind it, but it's not the way to go. I don't know how many mailing lists you all are subscribed to, but the sheer volume of it is driving me crazy and I am very much inclined to develop a grudge against each and every instance that sends me e-mail and consequently to ignore them.

    Short and clear explanation, no buzz, thanks. The kanban process looks more smooth, natural, logic and freedom, not just production because of production. With those management systems, I can see the management benefits however never mention something about the (code) quality aspects and the long term effects of doing it that way. Is it fast and furious or gentle and carefully, what do think costumers of it (review) and will stay the development crew motivated. If it turns out to be a factory of software no matter what the quality is, just a tool to get a secured periodically income by sending bills, I think that is not a (long term) win.

    Nice! However, Kanban tends to be more flexible than what you described. It depend on the org and teams. For mine (software dev) we work with 7 columns on our board including a “To Do” column that is similar to a scrum backlog and 2 columns for tracking QA activities. We have drops (like sprints but in several weeks and months timeframes) based on quarterly deliverables. We just keep pulling from todo column based on Dev availability and blocked user stories. We have story points and priority ranking as well. Lastly, it’s team ran and we all work directly with our product owner (who is assigned to one Dev team). They’re kinda like a Agile Coach as they manage the board, but there are clear differences.
