New Features

The migration guide has
a complete list of what’s new in 4.3.0. We recommend you give that page a read
when upgrading as it outlines the deprecations present in 4.3.

New Feature Highlights

Controller::middleware() was added which allows you to define middleware
for a single controller only.
HttpClient::addMockResponse() was added making integration tests easier
to write without using complex to define mocks.
A JSON based logger was added.
FormHelper generates aria attributes improving out-of-the box
accessibility.
A new fixture subsystem leverages your migrations or SQL dumps to generate
test database schema was added.

How you Can Help
