Remove Abandoned Files

Sometimes when using Approval Tests you might end up with some stray approved files for tests that no longer exist.

You can quickly identify and eliminate these files by running .approval_tests_temp/remove_abandoned_files.py. Running this will first list all files it believes have been abandoned and then give you the option to delete these files.

Example output

Unused `.approved.` files found.

 - a.stray.approved.txt (in path/to/)
 - c.stray.approved.txt (in path/to2/)
Delete? [Y/n]
