I am pleased to announce the availability of a new backwards compatible feature in the "baseline" package (releases 1.2.0). This release includes support for Python 3.9 and removal of support for Python 3.4 and 3.5. This tool facilitates streamlining the creation and maintenance of tests which compare string output against a baseline. It offers a mechanism to compare a string against a baselined copy and update the baselined copy to match the new value when a mismatch occurs. The update process includes a manual step to facilitate a review of the change before acceptance. The tool uses multi-line string format for string baselines to improve readability for human review.
