Thanks for being honest. Scrum is not a panacea, it's a form of agile that even big globo-corpo can appreciate and that's why it's so widely deployed. Low cost certifications and copy-cat'ism. If you run Scrum the way it's trained, it is only effective at directing the people and planning. The developers need to ensure that non-functional requirements around code quality, all the -ilities really, are factored into the work that the team does - you do NOT get that with Scrum. This is my biggest complaint about Scrum is its utter silence on development standards. It is important as developers that we establish what our standards are and hold ourselves to those standards. You could say that the place for that in Scrum is the Team Working Agreement (like house rules), but again, there's no guidance that "Developers shall define the standard of quality for their work products...", etc. https://www.scrum.org/resources/creating-team-working-agreement https://www.scrum.org/resources/creating-team-working-agreem... To be honest, topics like software testing don't real attention with any methodology other than eXtreme Programming, AFAIK.
