How much of the Sprint Backlog must be defined during the Sprint Planning event?
In Scrum, the Sprint Backlog doesn't need to be entirely defined during the Sprint Planning event. Instead, it should be defined enough for the Development Team to create a solid plan for what they can achieve during the Sprint and to get started on the first several days of work. This allows for flexibility, as the Sprint Backlog can be updated throughout the Sprint as new tasks and insights emerge. The goal is to provide a clear direction for the Development Team while retaining the agility to adapt as new information becomes available.
Scrum Guide says “The Sprint Goal must be finalized prior to the end of Sprint Planning” NOT the Sprint Backlog. Sprint Backlog can be updated anytime during the Sprint by the Development Team, keeping the Sprint Goal unchanged.
Totally agree with you
its not B, as spring backlog keeps evolving during the sprint, it can not be estimated entirely in scrum planning. C is correct.

The correct answer is C. Enough so the Development Team can create its best forecast of what is can do, and to start the first several days of the Sprint. The Sprint Backlog is a plan by and for the Developers. It is a highly visible, real-time picture of the work that the Developers plan to accomplish during the Sprint in order to achieve the Sprint Goal. The Sprint Backlog is created during the Sprint Planning event and then added to throughout the Sprint as new work is identified. The Sprint Backlog is owned by the Developers, and they are responsible for updating it and keeping it accurate. The Sprint Backlog should be detailed enough so that the Developers can create their best forecast of what they can do during the Sprint, and to start the first several days of the Sprint. However, it does not need to be complete, and it can be updated throughout the Sprint as new work is identified
I think the answer is B
Should the correct answer be B?
