Fill in: 'A malformed message can ___ a consumer into an endless crash-and-retry loop.'
We say a bad message will 'send' a consumer into a loop — the standard collocation for causing repeated failure. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
2 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ a retry limit so a poison message eventually stops blocking the queue.'
We 'set a limit' — the standard, simple collocation for configuring a cap. The other options are less idiomatic here.
3 / 5
Fill in: 'Once retries are exhausted, we ___ the message to a dead-letter queue for inspection.'
We 'move' a message — the standard collocation for relocating it out of the main queue. The other options are less idiomatic here.
4 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ dead-lettered messages regularly instead of letting them sit unnoticed.'
We 'review' dead-lettered messages — the standard, simple collocation. The other options are less idiomatic here.
5 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ malformed payloads at the consumer boundary before they ever reach business logic.'
We 'validate' payloads — the standard collocation for confirming they meet the expected shape. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
