1 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ flaky tests so they don't block every pull request.'
We 'quarantine flaky tests' — the standard collocation for isolating them from the main suite. 'Cage', 'lock off' and 'fence' are not idiomatic in this testing context.
2 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ failures to find a pattern before assuming it's flakiness.'
We 'investigate failures' — the standard collocation for examining root cause. The other options are informal or ungrammatical here.
3 / 5
Fill in: 'Once confirmed, we ___ the flaky test with an owner and a deadline.'
We 'tag' a flaky test — the standard collocation for tracking it in the system. The other options are awkward or non-standard phrasings.
4 / 5
Fill in: 'Excessive flakiness can ___ trust in the whole CI pipeline.'
We 'erode trust' — the standard collocation for gradually undermining confidence. The other options don't collocate idiomatically with trust.
5 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ retries sparingly so flakiness isn't just masked.'
We 'use retries' — the standard, simple collocation here. The other phrasings are ungrammatical or unnatural.
