What is Scrumban and Kanban?

Answer»

Scrumban means combination of Scrum and Kanban methodology.

Scrumban is specially DESIGNED for project that requires frequent maintenance, having unexpected user stories and programming errors. Using these approaches, the team’s workflow is guided in a way that allows minimum completion time for each user story or programming error.

As in this approach we will not take up new task until the high PRIORITY task has reached the deploy state.

The below board depicts the above situation.

Let us compare Kanban and Scrum Approach.

Scrum
Kanban
More perspective
Less
Limit your (WIP) PER ITERATION
Limit your WIP (PER WORKFLOW)
Prescribe Roles like: Product owner, Scrum Master
No such PRESCRIBED roles.
Scrum resists change within an iteration
Free to add any task in “To do”
Scrum board is reset after each iteration
Not necessarily done as focus is on to finish one task completely and then remove.
Scrum PRESCRIBES cross functional teams
Team can set the ground rules as who can change/own the board, experiment and optimize
Scrum backlog items must fit into a sprint
No such rule but Kanban focus on minimizing LEAD time and level the flow.
