Who is the only role required to attend the Daily Scrum?

Scrum Master
Product Owner
Developer
Any team member

The correct answer is: Developer

The Daily Scrum is a crucial event in the Scrum framework where Developers synchronize their work and create a plan for the next 24 hours. The sole role that is required to attend this event is the Developer role. This is because the Daily Scrum is fundamentally a meeting for the Developers to assess their current progress, identify impediments, and adjust their plans to achieve the Sprint Goal. While the Scrum Master and Product Owner can attend, their presence is not mandatory. The Scrum Master's role is often to facilitate the meeting if needed, but the focus is completely on the development work being carried out. Likewise, the Product Owner may contribute insights related to product goals or priorities but does not need to be involved in every Daily Scrum. The essence of this meeting centers on the Developers collaborating and discussing their immediate work, making their active participation vital. Thus, it is the Developers who are required to attend, emphasizing their ownership and accountability in the Scrum process.
