A scrum wall/scrum board is a visual information radiator for displaying the current state of user stories and tasks within a team. Transparency is an important principle in scrum, and the scrum board is a way for a project to display what is being worked on, what is in progress, and what has been completed. If the team is at one location, then a physical scrum board is recommended, but distributed teams may wish to implement tools within popular agile application life-cycle management systems. The scrum board is continuously updated throughout each sprint.
