DEFINITION - In agile software development, a stand-up is a daily progress meeting, traditionally held within a development area. Business customers may attend for the purpose of gathering information. Stand-ups are sometimes referred to as "daily scrums."

The term "standup" is derived from the way it is run all attendees must remain standing to keep it short and the team engaged.
