When a Product Backlog item or an Increment is described as "#Done", everyone must understand what "#Done" means. Although this may vary significantly per #Scrum Team, members must have a shared understanding of what it means for work to be complete, to ensure transparency. This is the definition of "#Done" for the #Scrum Team and is used to assess when work is complete on the product Increment.

The same definition guides the Development Team in knowing how many Product Backlog items it can select during #Sprint Planning. The purpose of each #Sprint is to deliver Increments of potentially releasable functionality that adhere to the #Scrum Team’s current definition of "#Done".

Development Teams deliver an #Increment in product functionality every #Sprint. This Increment is useable, so a Product Owner may choose to immediately release it. If the definition of "#Done" for an increment is part of the conventions, standards, or guidelines of the development organization, all #Scrum Teams must follow it as a minimum.

If "#Done" for an increment is not a convention of the development organization, the Development Team of the #Scrum Team must define a definition of "#Done" appropriate for the product. If there are multiple #Scrum Teams working on the system or product release, the Development Teams on all the #Scrum Teams must mutually define the definition of "#Done".

Each Increment is additive to all prior Increments and thoroughly tested, ensuring that all Increments work together.

As #Scrum Teams mature, it is expected that their definitions of "#Done" will expand to include more stringent criteria for higher quality. New definitions, as used, may uncover work to be done in previously "#Done" increments. Anyone product or system should have a definition of "#Done" that is a standard for any work done on it.
