==============================
Release and Branching Strategy
==============================
When maintaining TYPO3 extensions, developers often need to support multiple
TYPO3 Long-Term Support (LTS) versions simultaneously. This typically requires
a clear release and branching strategy to manage development and maintenance
across different TYPO3 versions.
There are two common strategies for managing branches when supporting multiple
TYPO3 LTS versions.

.. _release-branching-strategy-one-branch:
Approach 1: One branch for multiple TYPO3 LTS versions
======================================================
In this approach, there is a single main branch that receives new features and
updates, while supporting multiple TYPO3 LTS versions at the same time.
The downside of this approach is that it may require some version-dependent
code switches, which can increase complexity. However, the major advantage is
that there is only one branch to maintain, making it easier to implement new
features and code changes across all supported TYPO3 versions.
This approach simplifies the maintenance of the extension and is preferred when
minimizing maintenance overhead is the primary concern.
.. _release-branching-strategy-multiple-branches:
Approach 2: Separate branch per TYPO3 LTS version
=================================================
In this approach, there is one main branch for each TYPO3 LTS version. This
means that each branch exclusively supports a single TYPO3 LTS version.
The advantage here is that version-specific code can be used without requiring
version-dependent switches, reducing complexity in the codebase. However, this
approach increases the maintenance burden, as any new features or updates must
be applied to each branch individually.
This approach may be necessary when there are significant differences between
TYPO3 LTS versions or when you want to avoid version-dependent code.
.. _release-strategy-conclusion:
Conclusion
==========
The appropriate release and branching strategy depends on the specific
requirements of the extension and the TYPO3 versions you are supporting. If
reducing maintenance complexity is a priority, using a single branch for
multiple versions is often the better choice. However, if you need to tailor
your extension for each version, a separate branch for each version may be more
suitable.

=================
Testing framework
=================
Extensions usually need to support two LTS versions of TYPO3 in parallel,
assuming that they should support all currently supported TYPO3 LTS versions.
To achieve this, there are two different approaches, which also affect the
choice of a testing framework for unit and functional tests.
.. contents:: Table of Contents:

.. _testing-framework-approach-many-versions:
Approach 1: One branch for many TYPO3 LTS versions
==================================================
With this approach, there is one main branch that gets new features. It needs to
support two TYPO3 LTS versions in parallel.
The downside is that this slightly increases code complexity as
version-dependent code switches might be necessary. The upside is that there
is only one branch to maintain, which makes adding new features (and all other
code changes) a lot less of a hassle.
The `Nimut testing framework <https://github.com/Nimut/testing-framework>`__
can support multiple TYPO3 versions at a time, and
it provides version-independent abstractions for testing, making it the perfect
companion for this approach.
This is the approach that we have chosen for this extension as we do not want
to maintain two branches in parallel.
.. _testing-framework-approach-one-version:
Approach 2: One branch per TYPO3 LTS version
============================================
With this approach, there are two main branches that get new features in
parallel. Each branch supports exactly one TYPO3 LTS version.
The upside is that this slightly decreases code complexity as
version-dependent code switches are not necessary. The downside is that there
are two branches to maintain, which makes adding new features (and all other
code changes) more of a hassle.
For this approach, the
`TYPO3 testing framework <https://github.com/TYPO3/testing-framework>`__
- which supports only one TYPO3 LTS version at a time - will work just fine.
