Shopify is another company going all in on Minitest. They deprecate their rspec-queue runner. I haven't realized I'll see real shift from RSpec but it's happening in real time as we speak. Back to defaults that just work (tm).
Seen in a Shopify project README. TIL RSpec is deprecated at Shopify. https://x.com/nateberkopec/status/2027428277049237743/photo/1
