As announced in WWDC23, and very similarly to the way you perform migrations across Swift Data models, you can now define Core Data migrations programmatically using an NSStagedMigrationManager instance.This method works by defining a series of migration steps (called stages) that describe how to migrate across different versions of your model.
Pkl (pronounced Pickle) is a new programming language from Apple designed specifically for configuration. It allows developers to design data models richly and expressively through the use of types and then validate them to catch errors early on. A feature that sets it apart for Apple developers and, as it couldn't be any other way with Pkl being an Apple language, is that it has a suite of tools available for generating Swift interfaces from `.pkl` configuration files.
Make sure no regressions occur in your custom XCTestCase extensions and helper methods with unit tests and XCTExpectFailure.
