Scrum doesn’t tell people what to do. It offers a few clear, simple rules—and trusts teams to play the game wisely. As the Scrum Guide says: “Rather than provide people with detailed instructions, the rules of Scrum guide their relationships and interactions.” According to the Cambridge Dictionary, a rule is: “An accepted principle or instruction that states the way things are or should be done, and tells you what you are allowed or not allowed to do.

Back in the day (1999), I started working with XP teams. Things were great: cracking out code, writing tests, and doing this super cool thing called continuous integration.
