v4.0.6
The rollout of this release to the 7 apps that use this library met unexpected ☠️ fatal runtime compatibility problems ☠️ for those apps that weren't fully up to date with CAPI client libraries.
The versions of the content-api-client & content-api-models libraries resolved within those apps were actually incompatible (though it would have been hard to spot it - the incompatibility was only an upgrade of content-api-models v17.5.1 → v17.5.2 - fairly subtle). See issue #301 for more details.
This kind of incompatibility is unpredictable 🎲 and unfortunately very hard to write tests for - more unit tests was not the answer to stopping this happening again.
This ultimately led into the work in gha-scala-library-release-workflow, that includes using sbt-version-policy to set versionScheme to early-semver, and use the releaseVersion setting to get correct version number bumps by using automated compatibility testing:
releaseVersion := ReleaseVersion.fromAggregatedAssessedCompatibilityWithLatestRelease().valueWith all these libraries updated to use gha-scala-library-release-workflow, and all of them updated to use versions that are using early-semver, this kind of rollout problem should hopefully be eliminated for subsequent releases. ✨ ✨ ✨
