The term ‘Developer’ in Scrum is used explicitly to be inclusive rather than exclusive. It encompasses anyone using Scrum to develop something of Value, regardless of their specific role or expertise. This inclusivity is essential because it recognises that development involves various activities and skills, not just writing code or building software.
By considering everyone who contributes to the creation of the product as a Developer, Scrum encourages collaboration and shared responsibility among all team members. This approach helps ensure that all aspects of product development are covered and that everyone is working towards the same goal.
