 * **Unit Testing**
 
+  - Updated "Getting Started" documentation for `GoogleTest <https://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/advanced/unit-testing/frameworks/googletest.html>`__ testing and mocking framework
   - Export |UNITTESTING| flags only to the project build environment (``projenv``, files in "src" folder)
   - Merged the "building" stage with "uploading" for the embedded target (`issue #4307 <https://github.com/platformio/platformio-core/issues/4307>`_)
   - Do not resolve dependencies from the project "src" folder when the `test_build_src <https://docs.platformio.org/en/latest//projectconf/section_env_test.html#test-build-src>`__ option is not enabled
+  - Do not immediately terminate a testing program when results are received
   - Fixed an issue when a custom `pio test --project-config <https://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/core/userguide/cmd_test.html#cmdoption-pio-test-c>`__ was not handled properly (`issue #4299 <https://github.com/platformio/platformio-core/issues/4299>`_)
   - Fixed an issue when testing results were wrong in the verbose mode (`issue #4336 <https://github.com/platformio/platformio-core/issues/4336>`_)
