In Scrum, the term ‘development’ can be thought of as synonymous with ‘work.’ Developers are responsible for carrying out the work needed to produce the Increment, which includes planning, designing, coding, testing, and any other activities required to create a usable product.
This broad definition of development emphasises that the Developers’ role is not limited to technical tasks but encompasses all the work necessary to deliver Value. By focusing on the work involved in producing the Increment, Developers ensure that all aspects of product creation are addressed, contributing to the overall success of the Scrum Team.
