Sprint Review
The Sprint Review is a Scrum event that is held at the end of the Sprint. Its purpose is to show the progress the team has made to its customers and to other stakeholders. Most importantly of all the team seeks feedback from its customers, as well as from other stakeholders that are present. Feedback is used to adjust teams work priorities and plans.
