v13.0.0-rc.0

13.0.0-rc.0 (2024-12-13)

Migration guide

Important Changes

• Enabled concurrent rendering by default
• Automatically extend Jest matchers, you no longer need to import @testing-library/react-native/extend-expect. Importing @testing-library/react-native will be enough.
• remove host component name auto-detection. Test should run faster.

Removed

• *ByA11yState queries have been removed use *ByRole queries or toHaveAccessibilityState matcher instead
• *ByA11yValue queries have been removed use *ByRole queries or toHaveAccessibleValue matcher instead
• Removed support for React 16 & 17. Supports React 18 and 19.
• Removed debug.shallow method
• Removed @testing-library/react-native Jest preset (useful for React 17). Just use regular react-native Jest preset.

Other changes (should have no visible effects):

• new implementation of flushMicrotaskQueue
• slightly different way to calculate a11y labels
• uses React's implementation of act instead of React Test Renderer's
