Version Details and Security Vulnerabilities

@storybook/addon-interactions has a new release, version 8.4.0, following closely on the heels of version 8.3.7. Both versions serve to automate, test, and debug user interactions within Storybook, aiming to streamline the UI development workflow. A key difference lies in the synchronized dependency versions, with 8.4.0 now requiring and utilizing @storybook/test and @storybook/instrumenter at version 8.4.0 as well, while 8.3.7 relied on version 8.3.7 of the same packages. This synchronization suggests potential improvements in the interaction testing capabilities or bug fixes within the addon itself that depend on the updated core Storybook infrastructure.

Developers upgrading to 8.4.0 should be aware of the peer dependency requirement, now specifying storybook: ^8.4.0, ensuring compatibility with the latest Storybook core. The size of the unpacked package has slightly increased in version 8.4.0 going from 128280 to 128516, indicating potential additions or modifications to the codebase. While the core functionality remains consistent between the two versions, the updated dependencies in 8.4.0 likely address internal improvements and ensure compatibility, giving developers access to the most recent enhancements in interaction testing features within the Storybook ecosystem. The near release dates (version 8.4.0 released before version 8.3.7) might suggest a quick fix or a revert.
