X'inhu d-Definition of Done, u kif jiddifera mill-Definition of Ready?

Question

Accepted Answer

Il-**Definition of Done (DoD)** hija checklist maqsuma li Increment għandu jissodisfa biex ikun meqjus komplut u potenzjalment releasable. Il-**Definition of Ready (DoR)** hija ftehim fakultattiv dwar dak li backlog item ikollu bżonn qabel il-team jieħu lill-Sprint. DoD hija commitment formali tal-Scrum; DoR hija konvenzjoni utli tal-team.

## Eżempju ta' checklist DoD

```text
[ ] Code reviewed and merged
[ ] Unit + integration tests pass in CI
[ ] Meets acceptance criteria
[ ] No critical bugs / no broken builds
[ ] Documentation / changelog updated
[ ] Deployed to staging and verified
```

## DoR vs DoD

| | Definition of Ready | Definition of Done |
|--|--------------------|--------------------||
| Gate | Qabel ma tidħol f'Sprint | Qabel ma item ikun komplut |
| Owner convention | Team + Product Owner | Il-Scrum Team kollu |
| Status | Għajnuna fakultattiva | Commitment formali tal-Scrum |

## Eżempju konkret

Story hija "Done" biss meta tkun riveduta, ttestjata, u fuq staging — mhux meta developer jgħid "jaħdem fuq il-machine tiegħi." Dan il-bar maqsum iżomm il-kwalità konsistenti.

## Pitfalls komuni

- DoD vagu ("jidher tajjeb") li jħalli l-ħidma mitmuma tgħodd bħala Done.
- Kif tittratta DoR bħala gate riġidu li jblokkja l-flessibilità kollu.
- Developers differenti japplika standards personali differenti.

## Għaliex dan hu importanti

DoD qawwi juħlq transparenza: kulħadd jaf eżattament x'jfisser "Done", għalhekk velocity u Increments huma affidabbli.

DoR raġonevoli tnaqqas sorpriżi mid-Sprint billi tżomm items mifhuma qabel ma l-team jilkommetti.
