@Andrew do you mean user tests might create ConsumerRecords, or are you concerned about AK tests?
I guess Alieh would be the one to implement this, so I'll leave it up to her to investigate the current usage of the existing constructor and whether it feels like too much trivial work to remove it from our own AK tests. Otherwise, on pure API design philosophy grounds, I would prefer to deprecate and remove the old one. However if we feel that users have reason to create ConsumerRecords for tests then it's probably not worth the upheaval to deprecate the old constructor.
