Version 28.1.7 Details

@types/jest versions 28.1.7 and 28.1.6 offer TypeScript definitions for the popular Jest testing framework. While both aim to provide accurate type information for Jest users, a key difference lies in their dependencies. Version 28.1.7 depends on expect version ^28.0.0 and pretty-format version ^28.0.0. In contrast, version 28.1.6 depends on pretty-format version ^28.0.0 and jest-matcher-utils version ^28.0.0, the expect dependency being removed on the latter. This replacement suggests a potential shift in how types are handled internally, possibly streamlining type definitions or addressing specific issues related to expect in the previous version. The file counts remain constant at 5, but we can see a slight difference of 519 bytes in unpackedSize (73249 vs 73768) which also indicates possible changes in the underlying typings.

Developers considering upgrading should be aware of this dependency adjustment. If your project relies heavily on specific type behaviors derived directly from the removed expect dependency in version 28.1.6, testing the new version 28.1.7 becomes crucial to ensure continued compatibility. The release date difference also highlights the recency of 28.1.7 (August 15, 2022) compared to 28.1.6 (July 15, 2022), indicating potential bug fixes and improvements incorporated in the newer release. Always consult the DefinitelyTyped repository for detailed changelogs when upgrading type definition packages.
