Fluent Assertions, the popular .NET library for unit testing, has launched version 8 under a proprietary license through a partnership with Xceed Software. This new license allows non-commercial use to remain free, but subjects commercial usage to a paid fee, inciting a negative reaction from the developer community. Xceed announced that while version 8 will carry this new commercial license, version 7 will continue to be available under the old Apache 2.0 license, ensuring free use across all types of projects. The transition raises concerns about accessibility for developers working in commercial environments.
Fluent Assertions v8 introduces a proprietary license introducing paid commercial use, which has sparked backlash from the developer community, while previous version v7 remains free.
