Version 29.5.12 Details

@types/jest provides TypeScript definitions for the popular Jest testing framework, enabling developers to write type-safe Jest tests within their TypeScript projects. Version 29.5.12 represents a minor update compared to the previous stable version, 29.5.11. Both versions share identical core dependencies, relying on expect and pretty-format at versions compatible with the 29.0.0 release line. This indicates that the fundamental testing capabilities and formatting utilities remain consistent between the two versions. The license remains under the permissive MIT license, ensuring broad usability.

The critical difference lies in the release date and potentially subtle internal adjustments within the type definitions themselves. Version 29.5.12 was released on February 1st, 2024, while 29.5.11 came out on December 6th, 2023. While the fileCount remains consistent at 5, the unpackedSize is slightly different between the two versions, changing from 78709 to 78708 bytes; this suggests a minor code change, probably related to fixing type definitions. Developers should upgrade to version 29.5.12 primarily to benefit from any bug fixes, improved type accuracy, or enhanced compatibility addressing potential issues found since the previous release. Check the DefinitelyTyped repository on GitHub for details about the pull requests included in this release. Staying up-to-date with the latest type definitions ensures the most accurate and reliable type checking for your Jest tests, minimizing potential runtime errors and improving code maintainability and overall reliability.
