What does the Sprint Backlog make visible?

The Sprint Backlog specifically makes visible all the tasks identified to meet the Sprint Goal. This artifact is a crucial part of the Scrum framework and is maintained by the Development Team. It includes detailed items from the Product Backlog that have been selected for the current Sprint, along with a plan for delivering the product increment and achieving the Sprint Goal.

The focus on the tasks in the Sprint Backlog ensures that the team is clear about what needs to be accomplished during the Sprint. It serves as a living document that can be updated as the team progresses, enabling transparency around the work required to fulfill their commitments. This visibility allows team members and stakeholders to understand the scope of work remaining and promotes accountability within the Development Team.

The other options do not align with the purpose of the Sprint Backlog. The remaining work of the Product Owner is not specifically represented in the Sprint Backlog, as that is covered by the Product Backlog. The overall project timeline is not visible in the Sprint Backlog, as Scrum focuses on iterative progress rather than fixed project timelines. The Definition of Done, while important, is a separate guideline that informs when work is complete, but it is not explicitly part of what the Sprint Backlog presents.
