@GrahamCampbell What is the reason for this change? Tests should generally also pass with newer versions of the components.

@xabbuh The tests were failing before because of depreciation warnings. They are now all passing.

// cc @fabpot

@GrahamCampbell Maybe it's then a better idea to backport the changes to the PHPUnit configuration which hide deprecation errors (see #12705 and #12756)?

👍 for backporting the change

👍 for backporting the change actually. :)

@GrahamCampbell Maybe it's even better to not backport them and do something better (see @stof's comment here).

@xabbuh for the 2.3 branch, it is fine to backport the change. the branch were we should avoid using the deprecated methods in our own code is 2.7, not 2.3

@stof Hm, good point.

@GrahamCampbell Do you want to do that?

I can do? Hard anyone else done this already, or am I good to send a pull?

@GrahamCampbell I think it's done in #13033.
