Versioning and stability
Grafana k6 Studio follows a rolling release model, where only the latest version is actively supported.
Users are automatically upgraded to the latest version upon release.
Versioning scheme and release frequency
k6 Studio employs a versioning scheme inspired by Semantic Versioning:
Major versions (X.y.z)
- Introduce breaking changes or significant functionality updates.
- Released only when necessary.
Minor versions (x.Y.z)
- Introduce new, backward-compatible features and improvements.
- Released approximately every 2-6 weeks.
Patch versions (x.y.Z)
- Include bug fixes and performance enhancements without changing functionality.
- Released as needed.
Breaking changes policy
Migrations
Whenever possible, breaking changes will be handled transparently through automatic migration tools. If a migration tool can’t support a particular change, for example, for major UI/UX revamps:
- Users will be notified about upcoming changes.
- Where applicable, we will provide documentation to ease migration.
Deprecation notices
Features planned for removal will be marked as deprecated in advance.
Release notes
Each release will include information about new features and bug fixes.
A complete CHANGELOG is maintained on the k6 Studio GitHub repository CHANGELOG file.
