+
+## Deprecations
+
+- [`#5118`](https://github.com/grafana/k6/pull/5118), deprecates `--no-summary` in favor of `--summary-mode=disabled`
+- [`#5138`](https://github.com/grafana/k6/pull/5138), deprecates `--summary mode=legacy`
+
+## New features
+
+### `locator.locator` [#5073](https://github.com/grafana/k6/pull/5073)
+
+The `locator.locator` method allows you to define locators relative to a parent locator, enabling powerful locator chaining and nesting. This feature lets you create more precise element targeting by combining multiple selectors in a hierarchical manner.
+
+```javascript
+await page
+  .locator('[data-testid="inventory"]')
+  .locator('[data-item="apples"]')
+  .locator('button.add')
+  .click();
+```
+
+This nesting capability provides a more intuitive way to navigate complex DOM structures and serves as the foundation for other `locator` APIs in this release that require such hierarchical targeting.
