What versioning strategies does this skill support?

The skill provides implementation patterns for URI-based (recommended), header-based, and query parameter strategies, allowing for flexibility based on your project requirements.

Can I use different DTOs for different API versions?

Yes, this skill includes specific patterns for mapping separate Data Transfer Objects (DTOs) to different versions of the same entity to handle breaking schema changes cleanly.

How does this skill help with API deprecation?

It provides code snippets for adding 'Sunset' and 'Deprecation' headers to responses, as well as marking operations as deprecated in OpenAPI/Swagger documentation.

Does it include testing support for multiple versions?

Yes, it provides standardized test cases using the Symfony API test client to ensure that both legacy and current versions return the correct data formats.
