    Por Que e Quando Desempenhar Esta Tarefa

    In SAFe, the main portion of sprint planning occurs during the Big Room Planning process. The team backlog and the sprint planning portion of it is designed for refinement sessions. Though the overall plan of each sprint of a program increment already exists, the team still has sprint planning sessions every two weeks to add any missing stories and adjust the initial plan.
