## Upgrading to Xray 1.9.0

#### Breaking Changes

##### Deleted Tests and Test Runs

In previous version of Xray, when Test issues where deleted, the Test Runs where <span style="color: #545454">preserved</span>. Starting from version 1.9.0 of Xray, when Test issues are deleted all respective Test Runs will also be deleted including all execution information. Test Runs from previously deleted Test issues will no longer be visible but they will be kept in the database. We have decided to remove this behaviour because users expect executions be deleted when deleting Test issues. Also this feature was becoming very hard to maintain and even preventing new and more interesting features from being implemented.
