Practise the standard verbs for running sprint planning poker well.
0 / 5 completed
1 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ story points during planning poker before committing to a sprint, rather than guessing effort nobody's actually discussed as a team.'
We 'estimate points' — the standard, simple collocation for sizing stories in planning poker. The other options are less idiomatic here.
2 / 5
Fill in: 'Anchoring on the first number called out can ___ the whole team converging on an estimate nobody's actually reasoned through independently.'
We say anchoring will 'leave' the team converging on an unreasoned estimate — the standard, natural collocation for the resulting bias. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
3 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ a reference story for each point value, rather than a scale nobody on the team actually agrees on the meaning of.'
We 'establish a reference' — the standard, simple collocation for anchoring point values to a known story. The other options are less idiomatic here.
4 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ every large estimate against the story's actual acceptance criteria, rather than accepting a number nobody's actually broken down.'
We 'discuss an estimate' — the standard, simple collocation for probing a high point value before locking it in. The other options are less idiomatic here.
5 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ velocity across sprints on a shared chart, rather than re-deriving capacity from memory nobody's actually recorded.'
We 'track velocity' — the standard, simple collocation for monitoring a team's sprint output over time. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
