Compatibility

• #3016: Drop support for unmaintained versions of Node.js (@boneskull):
  • 0.10.x
  • 0.11.x
  • 0.12.x
  • iojs (any)
  • 5.x.x

  • IE7
  • IE8
  • PhantomJS 1.x
• #2615: Drop Bower support; old versions (3.x, etc.) will remain available (@ScottFreeCode, @boneskull)

Default Behavior

• #2879: By default, Mocha will no longer force the process to exit once all tests complete.

👎 Deprecations

• #2493: The --compilers command-line option is now soft-deprecated and will emit a warning on STDERR. Read this for more info and workarounds (@ScottFreeCode, @boneskull)

🎉 Enhancements

• #2628: Allow override of default test suite name in XUnit reporter (@ngeor)

There is a collection of frequently asked questions and of course you may always ask my humans.

Greenkeeper has checked the engines key in any package.json file, the .nvmrc file, and the .travis.yml file, if present.

• engines was only updated if it defined a single version, not a range.
• .nvmrc was updated to Node.js 10
• .travis.yml was only changed if there was a root-level node_js that didn’t already include Node.js 10, such as node or lts/*. In this case, the new version was appended to the list. We didn’t touch job or matrix configurations because these tend to be quite specific and complex, and it’s difficult to infer what the intentions were.

For many simpler .travis.yml configurations, this PR should suffice as-is, but depending on what you’re doing it may require additional work or may not be applicable at all. We’re also aware that you may have good reasons to not update to Node.js 10, which is why this was sent as an issue and not a pull request. Feel free to delete it without comment, I’m a humble robot and won’t feel rejected 🤖
