+**PytestRemovedIn8Warning deprecation warnings are now errors by default.**
+
+Following our plan to remove deprecated features with as little disruption as
+possible, all warnings of type ``PytestRemovedIn8Warning`` now generate errors
+instead of warning messages by default.
+
+**The affected features will be effectively removed in pytest 8.1**, so please consult the
+:ref:`deprecations` section in the docs for directions on how to update existing code.
+
+In the pytest ``8.0.X`` series, it is possible to change the errors back into warnings as a
+stopgap measure by adding this to your ``pytest.ini`` file:
+
+.. code-block:: ini
+
+    [pytest]
+    filterwarnings =
+        ignore::pytest.PytestRemovedIn8Warning
+
+But this will stop working when pytest ``8.1`` is released.
+
+**If you have concerns** about the removal of a specific feature, please add a
+comment to :issue:`7363`.
