0 / 5 completed
1 / 5
Fill in: 'Multiple teams ___ their work to a single release train each cycle.'
We 'align work' to a release train — the standard coordination collocation. 'Tie', 'fix' and 'lock' don't pair idiomatically with this scheduling process.
2 / 5
Fill in: 'Any feature not ready will ___ the next train instead.'
We 'catch the next train' — the idiomatic phrase for slipping to a later release. 'Grab', 'take' and 'board' are less standard in this release-train metaphor.
3 / 5
Fill in: 'Release managers ___ a fixed cadence so teams can plan ahead.'
We 'maintain cadence' — the standard collocation for keeping a consistent release rhythm. 'Keep', 'hold' and 'mind' are weaker and less idiomatic here.
4 / 5
Fill in: 'Before the train departs, we ___ scope to avoid late surprises.'
We 'freeze scope' — the standard collocation for finalising what's included. 'Lock down', 'seal' and 'cap' are close but 'freeze' is the idiomatic release term.
5 / 5
Fill in: 'After the release, we ___ lessons for the next train cycle.'
We 'capture lessons' — the standard collocation for documenting learnings. 'Grab', 'note down' and 'jot' are informal and less idiomatic in this process context.
