Who ensures that all members of the Development Team complete their tasks during a Sprint?

The Development Team is responsible for ensuring that all members complete their tasks during a Sprint. This self-managing team collaborates to organize their work, make commitments, and hold one another accountable for achieving the goals set forth in the Sprint.

The Development Team operates under the principles of Scrum, which emphasize team autonomy and collective ownership of the work. The members decide how to best accomplish their goals and manage their own progress. This collaboration fosters an environment where team members support each other, identify challenges, and work together to overcome them.

While the Scrum Master plays a key role in facilitating the Scrum process and removing impediments, they do not directly manage or oversee the tasks of Development Team members. The Product Owner focuses on defining the product backlog and prioritizing tasks based on stakeholder needs, but does not ensure task completion. Stakeholders offer input and feedback but are not involved in day-to-day task management within the Sprint. Thus, the Development Team is uniquely positioned to ensure that each member completes their specific responsibilities in the Sprint.
