 # Upcoming Release 0.19.6
 
 ## Major features and improvements
+* Added `raise_errors` argument to `find_pipelines`. If `True`, the first pipeline for which autodiscovery fails will cause an error to be raised. The default behaviour is still to raise a warning for each failing pipeline.
 * It is now possible to use Kedro without having `rich` installed.
 * Added a `--telemetry` flag to `kedro run`, allowing consent to data usage to be granted or revoked at the same time the command is run.

 * Updated `kedro pipeline create` and `kedro pipeline delete` to read the base environment from the project settings.
 * Updated CLI command `kedro catalog resolve` to read credentials properly.
 * Changed the path of where pipeline tests generated with `kedro pipeline create` from `<project root>/src/tests/pipelines/<pipeline name>` to `<project root>/tests/pipelines/<pipeline name>`.
-* Updated ``.gitignore`` to prevent pushing Mlflow local runs folder to a remote forge when using mlflow and git.
+* Updated ``.gitignore`` to prevent pushing MLflow local runs folder to a remote forge when using MLflow and Git.
 * Fixed error handling message for malformed yaml/json files in OmegaConfigLoader.
 * Fixed a bug in `node`-creation allowing self-dependencies when using transcoding, that is datasets named like `name@format`.
 * Improved error message when passing wrong value to node.

-If any of these steps fail, `find_pipelines()` raises an appropriate warning and skips the current pipeline but continues traversal.
+By default, if any of these steps fail, `find_pipelines()` (or `find_pipelines(raise_errors=False)`) raises an appropriate warning and skips the current pipeline but continues traversal. During development, this enables you to run your project with some pipelines, even if other pipelines are broken or works in progress.
+
+If you specify `find_pipelines(raise_errors=True)`, the autodiscovery process will fail upon the first error. In production, this ensures errors are caught up front, and pipelines do not get excluded accidentally.
 
 The mapping returned by `find_pipelines()` can be modified, meaning you are not limited to the pipelines returned by each of the `create_pipeline()` functions found above. For example, to add a data engineering pipeline that isn't part of the default pipeline, add it to the dictionary *after* constructing the default pipeline:
