Released: 3.9

Motivation

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.

Public Interfaces

org.apache.kafka.streams.processor.MockProcessorContext from package kafka-stream-test-utils.

Proposed Changes

We propose to deprecate MockProcessorContext so we can remove it in a future major release (most likely 5.0).

Compatibility, Deprecation, and Migration Plan

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

Test Plan

n/a

Documentation Plan

Regular JavaDocs and webpage docs updates.

Rejected Alternatives
