* states: fixed a bug that caused Terraform to be unable to identify when two states had different output values. This may have caused issues in specific circumstances like backend migrations. ([#38181](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/issues/38181))
* cloud: terraform cloud and registry discovery network requests are now more resilient, making temporary network or service related errors less common ([#38064](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/issues/38064))
NOTES:
@ -78,16 +80,6 @@ UPGRADE NOTES:
* backend/s3: The `AWS_USE_FIPS_ENDPOINT` and `AWS_USE_DUALSTACK_ENDPOINT` environment variables now only respect `true` or `false` values, aligning with the AWS SDK for Go. This replaces the previous behavior which treated any non-empty value as `true`. ([#37601](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/issues/37601))
EXPERIMENTS:
Experiments are only enabled in alpha releases of Terraform CLI. The following features are not yet available in stable releases.
- The experimental "deferred actions" feature, enabled by passing the `-allow-deferral` option to `terraform plan`, permits `count` and `for_each` arguments in `module`, `resource`, and `data` blocks to have unknown values and allows providers to react more flexibly to unknown values.
- `terraform test cleanup`: The experimental `test cleanup` command. In experimental builds of Terraform, a manifest file and state files for each failed cleanup operation during test operations are saved within the `.terraform` local directory. The `test cleanup` command will attempt to clean up the local state files left behind automatically, without requiring manual intervention.
- `terraform test`: `backend` blocks and `skip_cleanup` attributes:
- Test authors can now specify `backend` blocks within `run` blocks in Terraform Test files. Run blocks with `backend` blocks will load state from the specified backend instead of starting from empty state on every execution. This allows test authors to keep long-running test infrastructure alive between test operations, saving time during regular test operations.
- Test authors can now specify `skip_cleanup` attributes within test files and within run blocks. The `skip_cleanup` attribute tells `terraform test` not to clean up state files produced by run blocks with this attribute set to true. The state files for affected run blocks will be written to disk within the `.terraform` directory, where they can then be cleaned up manually using the also experimental `terraform test cleanup` command.
