Babel-jest versions 28.1.1 and 28.1.0 serve as Jest plugins, enabling seamless Babel transformation within your testing environment. Both versions maintain core functionality, utilizing dependencies like chalk for console output styling, slash for cross-platform path handling, and graceful-fs for robust file system operations. They also share key development dependencies such as @babel/core for Babel's core transformation engine and @types/graceful-fs for contributing to type safety with graceful-fs. Both versions also share the MIT license and the same repository, showing that it is still the same package.
A key difference lies within their dependency versions. Version 28.1.1 updates @jest/transform to 28.1.1 aligning it with the latest Jest transform module and also bumps babel-preset-jest up to version 28.1.1. The previous version, 28.1.0 used @jest/transform 28.1.0 and babel-preset-jest at version 28.0.2. While seemingly minor, these updates within the Jest ecosystem often include bug fixes, performance improvements, or new features. Therefore, developers should consider upgrading to version 28.1.1 for potentially enhanced compatibility and stability within their Jest testing pipelines, particularly if they are using other Jest packages at version 28.1.1. Also note the release dates; version 28.1.1 released about a month after version 28.1.0.
