v4.12.0

Changed

• Gherkin::VERSION is deprecated and will not be updated, use the composer runtime API if you need to identify the running version. This also changes the value used to namespace cached feature files. by @acoulton in #279

Added

• Provide CachedArrayKeywords::withDefaultKeywords() to create an instance without an external dependency on the path to the i18n.php file in this repo. NOTE that paths to source files will change in the next Gherkin release - use the new constructor to avoid any impact. by @carlos-granados in #290

Internal

• Upgrade to phpunit 10 by @uuf6429 in #275
• Remove redundant files by @uuf6429 in #278
• Update documentation by @uuf6429 in #274
• Adopt PHP CS Fixer and apply code styles by @uuf6429 in #277
• Add PHPStan and improve / fix docblock annotations and type-safety within methods to achieve level 5 by @uuf6429 in #276, #281, #282, and #287

v4.11.0

Changed

• Drop support for PHP < 8.1, Symfony < 5.4 and Symfony 6.0 - 6.3. In future we will drop support for PHP and symfony
  versions as they reach EOL. by @acoulton in #272
• Deprecated ExampleNode::getTitle() and ScenarioNode::getTitle() in favour of new methods with clearer meaning.
  by @uuf6429 in #271

Added

• Added (ExampleNode|ScenarioNode)::getName() to access human-readable names for examples and scenarios,
  and ExampleNode::getExampleText() for the string content of the example table row.
  by @uuf6429 in #271

Internal

• Enable dependabot for github actions workflows by @jrfnl in #261

v4.10.0

Changed

• ⚠ Backslashes in feature files must now be escaped
  Gherkin syntax treats \ as an escape character, which must be escaped (\\) to use it as a
  literal value. Historically, this was not being parsed correctly. This release fixes that bug,
  but means that if your scenarios currently use unescaped \ you will need to replace each one
  with \\ to achieve the same parsed result.
