The platform team's main goal this quarter was to ___ the developer workflow by removing manual steps.
Streamline a workflow is the standard operations and engineering collocation for making a process more efficient and less convoluted. 'Speed along' is informal. 'Cut down all' implies reduction. 'Shorten around' is not standard.

One goal of the developer experience team is to ___ friction in the local development setup.
Reduce friction is the established product and engineering collocation for lessening obstacles in a developer's workflow. 'Remove away' is redundant. 'Lower down' is redundant. 'Cut around' is not standard.

The team used GitHub Actions to ___ repetitive tasks like linting, testing, and deployments.
Automate tasks is the core engineering productivity collocation for replacing manual processes with scripts or pipelines. 'Run away' implies fleeing. 'Handle around' is informal. 'Do automatically out' is not valid.

The engineering manager used DORA metrics to ___ the team's delivery velocity each sprint.
Measure velocity is the standard agile and engineering metrics collocation. 'Track' is also correct, but 'measure velocity' is more precise. 'Count out' and 'watch around' are informal or imprecise.
5 / 5
Shortening CI run times is one of the best ways to ___ feedback for developers.
Improve feedback (specifically feedback loops) is the standard developer productivity collocation. 'Speed up around' and 'make faster along' are informal and non-technical. 'Enhance out' is not a valid phrase.
