I'm a bit confused here. Should the Scrum master be gathering the details from the team members or coordinating with the product owner? I'll have to review my Scrum knowledge.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know confirmation testing and regression testing are important after a defect fix, but I'm not sure which ones should be done next. I'll have to review my notes to be sure.
