Roadmap to 2.0

[Esemesek]

Roadmap to v2.0:

• - Add UNSAFE_ prefix to byProp, byType and byName queries (imp: Re-alias deprecated matchers and warn #261)
• - Deprecate (then remove) shallow, provide migration path (imp: Deprecate shallow #264)
• - Add Accessibility (ByA11yStates, ByA11yLabel, ByA11yRole, ByA11yHint, ByA11yState, ByA11yValue) queries (feat: add a11y queries #178, feat: byA11yState matcher #260, feat: byA11yValue matcher #262)
• - Add ByDisplayValue queries (feat: implement ByDisplayValue queries #190)
• - Fix getByTestId to only look for testID in host components like View or Text, like getAllByTestId does already (getAllByTestId returns empty list while getByTestId returns an item #270)
• - enable cleanup by default (feat: call "cleanup" automatically #238)
• - write migration guide
• - write blog post
• - remove "debug" export from library index (Remove debug export from the library #317)
• - Unify waitForElement to Testing Library signature, rename to waitFor (Unify waitForElement to Testing Library signature #318)

What about byDisplayValue for TextInput?

[thymikee]

Sure we can add that

Will we have support to async act? https://github.com/testing-library/react-testing-library/releases/tag/v6.1.0
I'm getting the same console errors they were trying to fix on that realease.

Thanks for the hard work on the library ❤

[dortamiguel]

Yes, will be really nice to have async act.

Just by updating react-test-renderer we should have the update right?

No, because it's not in the library package.json.
As the README says, it's heavily inspired but it does not have react-testing-library as dependency, :( but react-test-renderer is so if we ever need to stay up to date we just update the library! 😄

[dortamiguel]

Oh I see, do you need some help to add this?

I can offer a hand if you point me on the right direction

[betoharres]

@ellipticaldoor Sorry I can't help you with this, I'm just a user of this library and short on time to solve this, but I was watching the issue testing-library/react-testing-library#281 and I think @threepointone could help us giving a good hint of what could be done.

[threepointone]

async act will be available on react-test-renderer too with the 16.9 release(it’s already in the alpha)

[threepointone]

Specifically, it’ll be Testrenderer.act

[betoharres]

@threepointone wow thanks for the quickly response! I'm happy we will see support for async act soon! 😃

[dortamiguel]

awesome!

[thymikee]

@oshimayoan is available in 1.9.1, enjoy!
