Sprint Backlog practice test

The Sprint Backlog is a list of tasks identified by the Scrum team to be completed during the Scrum sprint. During the sprint planning meeting, the team selects some number of product backlog items, usually in the form of user stories, and identifies the tasks necessary to complete each user story. Throughout the sprint, team members are expected to update the sprint backlog as new information is available, but minimally once per day. It’s a real-time snapshot of the work that the team plans to accomplish during the sprint, and it should be easily visible to all team members.
