The Sprint Retrospective aims to achieve which of the following objectives?

  1. Plan future Sprints

  2. Gather teams' feedback on interactions and processes

  3. Assess product metrics

  4. Define new team roles

The correct answer is: Gather teams' feedback on interactions and processes

The Sprint Retrospective is a crucial ceremony in the Scrum framework, focused specifically on continuous improvement. Its primary objective is to gather feedback from team members regarding their interactions, processes, and the overall effectiveness of the Sprint. This feedback is essential for identifying areas of success and opportunities for improvement, allowing the team to evolve and adapt their practices for better collaboration and performance in future Sprints. While planning future Sprints may be part of the overall Scrum process, it is not the main focus of the Sprint Retrospective. Similarly, assessing product metrics or defining new team roles, while important in their own right, do not capture the essence of what the retrospective aims to achieve. The retrospective provides a dedicated space for team members to reflect on their practices, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to contribute to the conversation about how they can work more effectively together moving forward.
