Practise the standard verbs for handling unfinished sprint work.
0 / 5 completed
1 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ unfinished tickets into the next sprint at planning, rather than a task nobody's actually re-estimated.'
We 'carry over a ticket' — the standard, simple collocation for moving unfinished work into the next sprint. The other options are less idiomatic here.
2 / 5
Fill in: 'Repeated carryover without root-cause review can ___ a sprint's velocity meaningless nobody's actually trusting anymore.'
We say unreviewed carryover will 'leave' velocity meaningless — the standard, natural collocation for the resulting distorted metrics. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
3 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ the reason for every carried-over ticket at retro, rather than a delay nobody's actually explained.'
We 'discuss a reason' — the standard, simple collocation for examining why work slipped at a retrospective. The other options are less idiomatic here.
4 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ every carryover ticket against its original estimate, rather than a task nobody's actually re-scoped.'
We 'check a ticket' — the standard, simple collocation for revisiting a carried-over task's scope and estimate. The other options are less idiomatic here.
5 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ carryover rate across sprints on the team dashboard, rather than a trend nobody's actually noticed worsening.'
We 'track rate' — the standard, simple collocation for monitoring how much work carries over sprint to sprint. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
