-Add a new utility `renderTestApp` to `@backstage/frontend-test-utils` that simplifies rendering extensions within the Backstage application context for testing purposes. This utility replaces the use of `renderInTestApp` when the `extensions` option is needed.
+**BREAKING**: Removed the `extensions` option from `renderInTestApp`. If you need to pass extensions to the test app, use the new `renderTestApp` utility instead.
