Cadet Delahanty tells me the changes have been announced:

Rowing thingamajig to replace situps
Shuttle run and broad jump to be added (on a pass-fail basis)
2 mile run remains
Pushups remain (not replaced by pullups)

Overall, he's happy with the incremental changes
 
Those changes were tentatively announced over a year ago, but I was under the impression they're still very much up in the air. The SMA as recently as two weeks ago proposed a 4 mile run and 12 mile ruck march be added.

Has there been an official announcement that the test has been finalized to include rowers, a shuttle run and broad jump? I couldn't find anything, but my google-fu isn't awake yet.
 
I'm sure we'll see an official release from DA soon. Senior leaders made their final recommendations at the end of last month, when the SMA suggested the 4 mile run and 12 ruck, and they were to make a final decision around this time.
