Product Backlog Refinement

Product Backlog Refinement is an ongoing process where a development team reviews, updates, and prioritizes the list of work items (called the backlog) for a product. This ensures the most valuable features or fixes are ready to be worked on soon, and items are clearly understood. Regular refinement helps keep the backlog organized, reduces surprises during development, and aligns the team's efforts with stakeholder needs. It's like tidying and planning a to-do list so the team knows what to focus on next, making development more efficient and responsive.
