 |
| Point-based estimation of new items added to the backlog is done by the team, ideally during a brainstorming with the
 |
| Product Owner, one or two days prior to Sprint review.

| <keyConsiderations><p>
 |
| During a sprint, no one can modify the selection of backlog items, done at the beginning of the sprint: the sprint
 |
| scope remains unchanged.
 |
| </p>
 |
| <p>
 |
| However, anyone, even a external stakeholder, can suggest new items for later. These items are studied and prioritized
 |
| by the product owner prior to next sprint planning.<br />
 |
| Bugs and enhancement requests coming from partial product tests done at the end of previous sprint are also used to
 |
| update the backlog.
