+# Upgrading
+
+## Scenario 6.x to Scenario 7.x
+
+Scenario 7.0 has substantial API incompatibility with earlier versions, but
+comes with an intention to reduce the frequency of breaking changes in the
+future, aligning with the `ops` library.
+
+The changes listed below are not the only features introduced in Scenario 7.0
+(for that, see the release notes), but cover the breaking changes where you will
+need to update your existing Scenario tests.
+
+### Specify events via context.on
+
+In previous versions of Scenario, an event would be passed to `Context.run`
+as a string name, via a convenient shorthand property of a state component
+(e.g. `Relation`, `Container`), or by explicitly constructing an `Event` object.
+These have been unified into a single `Context.on.{event name}()` approach,
+which is more consistent, resembles the structure you're familiar with from
+charm `observe` calls, and should provide more context to IDE and linting tools.
+
+```python
+# Older Scenario code.
+ctx.run('start', state)
+ctx.run(container.pebble_ready_event, state)
+ctx.run(Event('relation-joined', relation=relation), state)
+
+# Scenario 7.x
+ctx.run(ctx.on.start(), state)
+ctx.run(ctx.on.pebble_ready(container=container), state)
+ctx.run(ctx.on.relation_joined(relation=relation), state)
+```
+
+The same applies to action events:
+
+```python
+# Older Scenario code.
+action = Action("backup", params={...})
+ctx.run_action(action, state)
+
+# Scenario 7.x
+ctx.run(ctx.on.action("backup", params={...}), state)
+```
+
+### Provide State components as (frozen) sets
+
+The state components were previously lists, but containers, relations, networks,
+and other state components do not have any inherent ordering. This led to
+'magic' numbers creeping into test code. These are now all sets, and have 'get'
+methods to retrieve the object you want to assert on. In addition, they are
+actually `frozenset`s (Scenario will automatically freeze them if you pass a
+`set`), which increases the immutability of the state and prevents accidentally
+modifying the input state.
+
+```python
+# Older Scenario code.
+state_in = State(containers=[c1, c2], relations=[r1, r2])
+...
+assert state_out.containers[1]...
+assert state_out.relations[0]...
+state_out.relations.append(r3)  # Not recommended!
+
+# Scenario 7.x
+state_in = State(containers={c1, c2}, relations={r1, r2})
+...
+assert state_out.get_container(c2.name)...
+assert state_out.get_relation(id=r1.id)...
+new_state = dataclasses.replace(state_out, relations=state_out.relations + {r3})
+```
+
+### Run action events in the same way as other events
+
+Previously, to run an action event Scenario offered a `run_action` method that
+returned an object containing the result of the action. The `run_action()`
+method (top-level and on the context manager) has been unified with the `run()`
+method. All events, including action events, are run with `run()` and return a
+`State` object. The action logs and history are available via the `Context`
+object, and if the charm calls `event.fail()`, an exception will be raised.
+
+```python
+# Older Scenario Code
+action = Action("backup", params={...})
+out = ctx.run_action(action, state)
+assert out.logs == ["baz", "qux"]
+assert not out.success
+assert out.results == {"foo": "bar"}
+assert out.failure == "boo-hoo"
+
+# Scenario 7.x
+with pytest.raises(ActionFailure) as exc_info:
+    ctx.run(ctx.on.action("backup", params={...}), State())
+assert ctx.action_logs == ['baz', 'qux']
+assert ctx.action_results == {"foo": "bar"}
+assert exc_info.value.message == "boo-hoo"
+```
+
+### Use the Context object as a context manager
+
+The deprecated `pre_event` and `post_event` arguments to `run`
+(and `run_action`) have been removed: use the context handler instead. In
+addition, the `Context` object itself is now used for a context manager, rather
+than having `.manager()` and `action_manager()` methods.
+
+In addition, the `.output` attribute of the context manager has been removed.
+The state should be accessed explicitly by using the return value of the
+`run()` method.
+
+```python
+# Older Scenario code.
+ctx = Context(MyCharm)
+state = ctx.run("start", pre_event=lambda charm: charm.prepare(), state=State())
+
+ctx = Context(MyCharm)
+with ctx.manager("start", State()) as mgr:
+    mgr.charm.prepare()
+assert mgr.output....
+
+# Scenario 7.x
+ctx = Context(MyCharm)
+with ctx(ctx.on.start(), State()) as manager:
+    manager.charm.prepare()
+    out = manager.run()
+    assert out...
+```
+
+### Pass State components are by keyword
+
+Previously, it was possible (but inadvisable) to use positional arguments for
+the `State` and its components. Most state components, and the `State` object
+itself, now request at least some arguments to be passed by keyword. In most
+cases, it's likely that you were already doing this, but the API is now
+enforced.
+
+```python
+# Older Scenario code.
+container1 = Container('foo', True)
+state = State({'key': 'value'}, [relation1, relation2], [network], [container1, container2])
+
+# Scenario 7.x
+container1 = Container('foo', can_connect=True)
+state = State(
+    config={'key': 'value'},
+    relations={relation1, relation2},
+    networks={network},
+    containers={container1, container2},
+)
+```
+
+### Pass only the tracked and latest content to Secrets
+
+In the past, any number of revision contents were provided when creating a
+`Secret. Now, rather than having a dictionary of many revisions as part of `Secret`
+objects, only the tracked and latest revision content needs to be included.
+These are the only revisions that the charm has access to, so any other
+revisions are not required. In addition, there's no longer a requirement to
+pass in an ID.
+
+```python
+# Older Scenario code.
+state = State(
+    secrets=[
+        scenario.Secret(
+            id='foo',
+            contents={0: {'certificate': 'xxxx'}}
+        ),
+        scenario.Secret(
+            id='foo',
+            contents={
+                0: {'password': '1234'},
+                1: {'password': 'abcd'},
+                2: {'password': 'admin'},
+            }
+        ),
+    ]
+)
+
+# Scenario 7.x
+state = State(
+    secrets={
+        scenario.Secret({'certificate': 'xxxx'}),
+        scenario.Secret(
+            tracked_content={'password': '1234'},
+            latest_content={'password': 'admin'},
+        ),
+    }
+)
+```
+
+### Trigger custom events by triggering the underlying Juju event
+
+Scenario no longer supports explicitly running custom events. Instead, you
+should run the Juju event(s) that will trigger the custom event. For example,
+if you have a charm lib that will emit a `database-created` event on
+`relation-created`:
+
+```python
+# Older Scenario code.
+ctx.run("my_charm_lib.on.database_created", state)
+
+# Scenario 7.x
+ctx.run(ctx.on.relation_created(relation=relation), state)
+```
+
+Scenario will still capture custom events in `Context.emitted_events`.
+
+### Copy objects with dataclasses.replace and copy.deepcopy
+
+The `copy()` and `replace()` methods of `State` and the various state components
+have been removed. You should use the `dataclasses.replace` and `copy.deepcopy`
+methods instead.
+
+```python
+# Older Scenario code.
+new_container = container.replace(can_connect=True)
+duplicate_relation = relation.copy()
+
+# Scenario 7.x
+new_container = dataclasses.replace(container, can_connect=True)
+duplicate_relation = copy.deepcopy(relation)
+```
+
+### Define resources with the Resource class
+
+The resources in State objects were previously plain dictionaries, and are now
+`scenario.Resource` objects, aligning with all of the other State components.
+
+```python
+# Older Scenario code
+state = State(resources={"/path/to/foo", pathlib.Path("/mock/foo")})
+
+# Scenario 7.x
+resource = Resource(location="/path/to/foo", source=pathlib.Path("/mock/foo"))
+state = State(resources={resource})
+```
+
+### Give Network objects a binding name attribute
+
+Previously, `Network` objects were added to the state as a dictionary of
+`{binding_name: network}`. Now, `Network` objects are added to the state as a
+set, like the other components. This means that the `Network` object now
+requires a binding name to be passed in when it is created.
+
+```python
+# Older Scenario code
+state = State(networks={"foo": Network.default()})
+
+# Scenario 7.x
+state = State(networks={Network.default("foo")})
+```
+
+### Use the .deferred() method to populate State.deferred
+
+Previously, there were multiple methods to populate the `State.deferred` list:
+events with a `.deferred()` method, the `scenario.deferred()` method, and
+creating a `DeferredEvent` object manually. Now, for Juju events, you should
+always use the `.deferred()` method of the event -- this also ensures that the
+deferred event has all of the required links (to relations, containers, secrets,
+and so on).
+
+```python
+# Older Scenario code
+deferred_start = scenario.deferred('start', handler=MyCharm._on_start)
+deferred_relation_created = Relation('foo').changed_event.deferred(handler=MyCharm._on_foo_relation_changed)
+deferred_config_changed = DeferredEvent(
+    handle_path='MyCharm/on/config_changed[1]',
+    owner='MyCharm',
+    observer='_on_config_changed'
+)
+
+# Scenario 7.x
+deferred_start = ctx.on.start().deferred(handler=MyCharm._on_start)
+deferred_relation_changed = ctx.on.relation_changed(Relation('foo')).deferred(handler=MyCharm._on_foo_relation_changed)
+deferred_config_changed = ctx.on.config_changed().deferred(handler=MyCharm._on_config_changed)
+```
+
+### Update names: State.storages, State.stored_states, Container.execs, Container.service_statuses
+
+The `State.storage` and `State.stored_state` attributes are now plurals. This
+reflects that you may have more than one in the state, and also aligns with the
+other State components.
+
+```python
+# Older Scenario code
+state = State(stored_state=[ss1, ss2], storage=[s1, s2])
+
+# Scenario 7.x
+state = State(stored_states={s1, s2}, storages={s1, s2})
+```
+
+Similarly, `Container.exec_mocks` is now named `Container.execs`,
+`Container.service_status` is now named `Container.service_statuses`, and
+`ExecOutput` is now named `Exec`.
+
+```python
+# Older Scenario code
+container = Container(
+    name="foo",
+    exec_mock={("ls", "-ll"): ExecOutput(return_code=0, stdout=....)},
+    service_status={"srv1": ops.pebble.ServiceStatus.ACTIVE}
+)
+
+# Scenario 7.x
+container = Container(
+    name="foo",
+    execs={Exec(["ls", "-ll"], return_code=0, stdout=....)},
+    service_statuses={"srv1": ops.pebble.ServiceStatus.ACTIVE},
+)
+```
+
+### Don't use `Event`, or `StoredState.data_type_name`
+
+Several attributes and classes that were never intended for end users have been
+made private:
+
+* The `data_type_name` attribute of `StoredState` is now private.
+* The `Event` class is now private.
+
+### Use Catan rather than `scenario.sequences`
+
+The `scenario.sequences` module has been removed. We encourage you to look at
+the new [Catan](https://github.com/PietroPasotti/catan) package.
+
+### Use the jsonpatch library directly
+
+The `State.jsonpatch_delta()` and `state.sort_patch()` methods have been
+removed. We are considering adding delta-comparisons of state again in the
+future, but have not yet decided how this will look. In the meantime, you can
+use the jsonpatch package directly if necessary. See the tests/helpers.py file
+for an example.
+
+### Remove calls to `cleanup`/`clear`
+
+The `Context.cleanup()` and `Context.clear()` methods have been removed. You
+do not need to manually call any cleanup methods after running an event. If you
+want a fresh `Context` (e.g. with no history), you should create a new object.
+
+### Include secrets in the state only if the charm has permission to view them
+
+`Secret.granted` has been removed. Only include in the state the secrets that
+the charm has permission to (at least) view.
+
+### Use 'app' for application-owned secrets
+
+`Secret.owner` should be `'app'` (or `'unit'` or `None`) rather than
+`'application'`.
+
+### Compare statuses with status objects
+
+It is no longer possible to compare statuses with tuples. Create the appropriate
+status object and compare to that. Note that you should always compare statuses
+with `==` not `is`.
+
+### Pass the name of the container to `State.get_container`
+
+The `State.get_container` method previously allowed passing in a `Container`
+object or a container name, but now only accepts a name. This is more consistent
+with the other new `get_*` methods, some of which would be quite complex if they
+accepted an object or key.
+
+### Use `State.storages` to get all the storages in the state
+
+The `State.get_storages` method has been removed. This was primarily intended
+for internal use. You can use `State.get_storage` or iterate through
+`State.storages` instead.
