MockProcessorContext (packed kafka-streams-test-utils) is used to test the custom processors which implement the old and already deprecated Processor interface. Both Processor and MockProcessorContext are already replace with new versions api.Processor and api.MockProcessorContext. Given that Processor is already deprecated, we should also deprecate MockProcessorContext.

Furthermore, Transformer, TransformerSupplier, ValueTransformer, and ValueTransformerSupplier, are already replaces with api.[FixedKey]Processor[Supplier] and should be deprecated to cleanup the old Processor API because KStream#transform() and KStream#transformValue() are already deprecated, too.

Proposed Changes

We propose to deprecate MockProcessorContext, Transformer, TransformerSupplier, ValueTransformer, and ValueTransformerSupplier, so we can remove it thme in a future major release (most likely 5.0).

...

None. We only deprecate a class for future removal in a major relaserelease.
