Hints for this Quiz

Think about an action in Git: which of these is related to code, not to coffee or meetings?

In Spanish IT teams you very often hear Spanglish like "hacer un commit." This is perfectly normal in an informal work environment (see also "hacer commit/push" in IT offices in Spain).

Look for the word that sounds fully Spanish and would fit in a document.

In Spanish documentation you’ll more often see "desplegar" or "hacer un despliegue." "Deployar" is IT jargon/Spanglish (there are references to "deployar" and "hacer deploy/despliegue" in Spanish office jargon, and in lists of IT slang: "deployar; hacer commit/push").

In a QA department, what do they do with "la app"? They test it ("prueban"). How would you say that in a formal way?

Contexto QA/Testing

"Realizar pruebas" sounds more formal, while "hacer pruebas" is neutral and conversational. In work contexts in Spain both are used, but for documentation "realizar" is preferred.

"Commit" is usually treated as masculine: "un commit."

Habla de commits

In real office speech people say "hacer un commit." It’s part of common technical Spanglish in Spain (see "hacer commit/push" in IT offices and the slang overview).

For a report, we choose the more formal verb.

"Realizar pruebas de regresión" is the most neutral and formal option for a report. "Hacer pruebas…" is simpler and more conversational; "testear" is jargon; "a saco" is very colloquial slang.
