All the code that was deprecated in Rails 5.1 is now removed in one fell swoop by the Rails 5.2 release manager — now you know how these removals are handled too, so please don't send individual removal PRs.

Psssst: it also brings us another step closer to the first 5.2 beta.
New
Allows gems or app code to hook in when
ActionDispatch::SystemTestCase has been fully loaded.
When passed false, the new allow_other_host option will restrict redirect_back links to just the current host, so users will only stay on your site.

It's not on by default, so users can enjoy a trip off-world on another host.
Wrapping Up
That's it for this now! As always, there isn't enough time to cover every change if you'd like check out the full list of changes yourself.
