Definition of Done
Summary
In Scrum each iteration - or Sprint - should yield a valuable product increment of release quality. Ian Mitchell advises that an understanding of what makes an increment truly releasable - and therefore genuinely “Done” - provides transparency over the work a Development Team plans to do, and the tasks it brings into progress. Work nearly done puts the team in technical debt, which must be repaid at compounding rates of interest.
