The roles of a Scrum Master and a Project Manager are different in terms of their focus, responsibilities, and how they operate within a team or organization. Here’s a breakdown of the key differences. 

The Definition of Done (DoD) is a shared agreement within a Scrum Team on the exact criteria a product increment must meet to be considered complete and ready for release or delivery.

It ensures transparency and quality by making “done” mean the same thing for everyone—no guesswork, no partial work counted as complete.

Key points about the DoD:

• Quality standard: Includes all requirements for functionality, performance, security, usability, documentation, and testing.

• Consistency: Every increment must meet the DoD, regardless of who works on it.

• Transparency: Everyone (team and stakeholders) knows exactly what “done” means.

• Evolving document: The team can update and improve it over time as practices mature.

Example DoD for a software feature:

• Code is written, peer-reviewed, and merged into the main branch.

• Unit, integration, and regression tests pass with 100% success.

• Feature is deployed to a staging environment and approved in UAT.

• No critical bugs remain.

• User documentation is updated.

Purpose:
The DoD prevents misunderstandings, ensures quality, and makes sure every Sprint produces a potentially shippable product increment.

If you want, I can also explain how the Definition of Done differs from Acceptance Criteria—they’re related but not the same.
