Documentation task could be included as part of sprint / or task Definition of done.
In true Scrum spirit, the team that has problems with lack of documentation, should figure that out from (1) retrospective, and start (2) including that work in Sprint explicitly, and (3) to explain to business owner that without these tasks, features are gonna get delivered 3x slower.
Benefits: documentation/testing will be explicitly required as a requirement, time will be allocated and accounted for, business and stakeholders will be aligned on that.
This doesn't happen because scrum leaders never care enough about the product, but at places where they do care it is well documented and structured
- nrclark 4y agoI've heard that suggestion a few times - just plan for documentation in your sprint. It's a nice idea. I've never seen it done though.
- AtNightWeCode 4y agoWhat works best from my experience is to include documentation in the DOD. Most of the time if you build a feature there are emails, tickets, notes from meetings etc. To write the docs is just a quick editing job in many cases.
