-:::danger
-Current implementation of `getByTestId` and `queryByTestId` has a serious flaw, which results in finding more IDs than there really would be present in native React host components. Fixing it may break some of your tests so we'll do it in next major release (v2). As a temporary workaround, please use `getAllByTestId('your-id')[0]` or `queryAllByTestId('your-id')[0]` or migrate off testing with testID, which is considered to be an escape hatch.
