@testing-library/react version 12.1.2 is a minor patch release succeeding version 12.1.1, both designed to simplify React DOM testing and encourage best practices. Examining the package data, core functionalities and dependencies remain largely consistent between the two versions. Both rely on @testing-library/dom for DOM manipulation and include similar development dependencies like react, react-dom, typescript, and testing utilities such as @testing-library/jest-dom. The peerDependencies also remain the same, requiring compatible versions of react and react-dom.
The key difference lies in the dist section, specifically the unpackedSize. Version 12.1.2 has a slightly larger unpacked size (5480460 bytes) compared to 12.1.1 (5480452 bytes). This minor size difference suggests the inclusion of small bug fixes, performance improvements, or documentation updates in the newer version. Developers upgrading should anticipate marginal improvements in stability or efficiency.
The release date also indicates a time difference, with version 12.1.2 released on October 3, 2021, after version 12.1.1 which was released on September 27, 2021 . Given the similarity of the dependencies and the nature of a patch release, upgrading from 12.1.1 to 12.1.2 is likely a smooth process, offering incremental improvements without significant breaking changes. Always refer to the official changelog for exhaustive details on implemented fixes and enhancements.
