+# 6.0.0-beta
+
+Selenium 4 removes the control flow and most of these changes are based on those changes. To see the full list of changes, please refer to selenium-webdriver's [CHANGELOG](https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/blob/master/javascript/node/selenium-webdriver/CHANGES.md)
+
+## Breaking changes
+
+- Control flow is removed and you should use async await to run your tests.
+- Other control flow related items:
+  - debugger, explore and element explorer have been removed
+  - jasminewd is no longer a dependency
+- ignoreSynchronization has been deprecated and you should use `waitForAngularEnabled`
+- Types for selenium-webdriver are currently in the types/ directory and are not complete. We are still missing some type definitions for selenium 4.
+- Actions API in selenium-webdriver have changed and they will break your test. Also we have not exported it yet since the type definitions are not complete.
