[B] Refinement of epics nominated by the Product Owner for the next couple of sprints, in order to promote reliable release planning.
[C] Verification of how well the product increment satisfies the applicable user stories in the Product Backlog.
–>
The Sprint Retrospective is an opportunity for the Scrum Team to inspect itself and create a plan for identified and agreed-upon improvements to be enacted during the next Sprint(s).
Thus, the Sprint Retrospective provides a formal opportunity to focus on inspection and adaptation.
Refinement of epics is part of the regular grooming exercise under auspicien of the Product Owner, and is not part of the retrospective.
Only during Sprint Review, it is determined whether the product increment satisfies the applicable items on the Product Backlog according to the ‘Definition of Done’.

At any point in time in a Sprint, the total work remaining in the Sprint Backlog items can be summed. The Development Team tracks the total work remaining at least for every Daily Scrum if needed after a re-estimate of tasks to be done.
Hence the estimates for the remaining work are updated on a daily basis. Note that Scrum does not consider the time spent working on Sprint Backlog Items. The work remaining and date are the only variables of interest.

Scrum uses time-boxed events, such that every meeting has a maximum duration. Timeboxing ensures that an appropriate amount of time is spent, minimizing the waste associated with open-end meetings without any time restriction.
Scrum events are using the following time-boxes:
For shorter Sprints, the events have a proportionately shorter time-box.

Development Teams must have a constant composition over a longer period of time, in order to enhance the overall efficiency by learning and collaboration. Furthermore, constant changes in team composition makes it cumbersome to decide on an average capacity of Development Teams, a requisite for reliable project planning.

One of the myths about Scrum is that it prevents you from writing detailed specifications.
In reality, it is up to the Product Owner and the Development Team to decide how much detail is required, and this will vary from one backlog item to the next, depending on the insight and maturity of the team, among other factors.
Low-priority items have fewer requirement details, while high priority and “fine-grained items” tend to have more detail.
