Thanks. Where do spikes go in the Scrum process? When I want to figure out something I am gonna need in this coming sprint. Let's say I make a spike of 4 hrs, and the outcome may be that I have 20 hrs in development. How should you deal with this when these hours are needed for the current sprint?

A "spike" is time boxed period used to research a concept and/or create a simple prototype, produce a proof of concept, expand knowledge, etc
