Sprint
The Association for Project Management (APM) Agile Glossary defines a sprint as: ‘a short development phase within a larger project defined by available time (‘timeboxes’) and resources.’
It defines a sprint retrospective as: ‘a review of a Sprint providing lessons learned with the aim of promoting continuous improvement.’
And velocity as: 'a measure of work completed during a single development phase or Sprint.'
