A sprint forecast is an estimate of what can be achieved in an upcoming Sprint. During Sprint planning, the team reviews the Product Backlog and selects stories that can be completed in the next Sprint based on the team's velocity and capacity. The forecast is a pragmatic commitment to a realistic amount of work1. The forecast helps the team plan their tasks, prioritize their goals, and set realistic expectations for what they can accomplish during the Sprint. It also helps them to identify any potential risks or issues that could arise during the course of the Sprint2. The forecast is not a guarantee or a promise, but rather a best guess based on the current information and assumptions3. The forecast can be updated during the Sprint as new information emerges or as the team learns from their work4. The forecast is a useful tool for the Product Owner to communicate with the stakeholders about the progress and the value delivered by the team.
