ATF Features Deprecated and their Replacements

We are currently on New York, but will be upgrading to Paris in a few weeks.  We have upgraded our Dev environment to Paris and have started testing.  I have a bunch of Automated Testing Framework (ATF) tests that I have imported and begun running.  I notice that certain Steps like "Record Query" now have the word "(Deprecated)" listed after them.  After hunting around a bit, I found another community question that mentioned that this change happened with the Orlando upgrade.

So i have a few questions:

1. It appears that even though the Steps say "Deprecated", they still seem to run OK.  Does anyone know if that will continue indefinitely, or if that will change at some point (and we will need to update them all)?

2. I have been trying to find some sort of documentation that lists the types of ATF Steps that have been deprecated, and what their replacements are, but I have been unable to do so.  Is there anything out there that addresses this?

Thanks

if you see in step configurations you will see which ones are deprecated.

I could see "Record Query" as the latest

you can use that as the other one is deprecated

@jmiskey 

seems so. Internally the test step they must have changed something and hence the older one marked as deprecated.

Let me know if I have answered your question.

If so, please mark appropriate answer as correct & helpful to close the thread.
