The difference between these is that a deprecated feature +will be removed, while a planned change to a feature means that the +feature will behave differently, but will still be present. Obviously, +either of these is a breaking change, and thus will not happen until +at least the next major release. + + +### `ParseAndAddCatchTests.cmake` + +The CMake/CTest integration using `ParseAndAddCatchTests.cmake` is deprecated, +as it can be replaced by `Catch.cmake` that provides the function +`catch_discover_tests` to get tests directly from a CMake target via the +command line interface instead of parsing C++ code with regular expressions. + + +### `CATCH_CONFIG_BAZEL_SUPPORT` + +Catch2 supports writing the Bazel JUnit XML output file when it is aware +that is within a bazel testing environment. Originally there was no way +to accurately probe the environment for this information so the flag +`CATCH_CONFIG_BAZEL_SUPPORT` was added. This now deprecated. Bazel has now had a change +where it will export `BAZEL_TEST=1` for purposes like the above. Catch2 +will now instead inspect the environment instead of relying on build configuration. + +### `IEventLister::skipTest( TestCaseInfo const& testInfo )` + +This event (including implementations in derived classes such as `ReporterBase`) +is deprecated and will be removed in the next major release. It is currently +invoked for all test cases that are not going to be executed due to the test run +being aborted (when using `--abort` or `--abortx`). It is however +**NOT** invoked for test cases that are [explicitly skipped using the `SKIP` +macro](skipping-passing-failing.md#top). + + +### Non-const function for `TEST_CASE_METHOD` + +> Deprecated in Catch2 vX.Y.Z + +Currently, the member function generated for `TEST_CASE_METHOD` is +not `const` qualified. In the future, the generated member function will +be `const` qualified, just as `TEST_CASE_PERSISTENT_FIXTURE` does. + +If you are mutating the fixture instance from within the test case, and +want to keep doing so in the future, mark the mutated members as `mutable`. + + +--- + +[Home](Readme.md#top) |
