In agile development, an epic represents a series of user stories that share a broader strategic objective.

Poker Planning

Planning poker (also called Scrum poker) helps agile teams estimate the time and effort needed to complete each item on their product backlog. The name from this gamified technique is planning poker because participants use physical cards. These cards, which look like playing cards, estimate the number of story points for each user story or item up for discussion.

Backlog

A product backlog is a prioritized list of work for the development team that is derived from the strategic objective and roadmap.

Backlog refinement is when the Product Owner and some, or all, of the rest of the team review items on the Backlog to ensure the backlog contains the appropriate items, that they are prioritized, and that the items at the top of the backlog are ready for delivery.
