Eslint-plugin-jest provides linting rules specifically tailored for Jest, the popular JavaScript testing framework. Comparing version 19.0.0 and the older 1.0.2 reveals significant architectural and dependency changes impacting developers. Version 19.0.0, released in February 2017, describes itself as "Eslint rules for Jest", mirroring the previous version. One key difference lies in its peer dependencies: version 19.0.0 mandates "eslint": ">=3.6", while version 1.0.2, released in December 2016, lists eslint and several dev dependencies. The older version includes testing dependencies such as jest, eslint, eslint-plugin-import, and eslint-config-airbnb-base. This suggests a shift toward users managing their own testing environment and dependency versions with the newer release, promoting more flexibility in integrating with diverse project setups. The newer version moves the repository to be part of the facebook/jest repository which means a broader ecosystem of rules and the older one was managed by the author. The license of the newest version is BSD-3-Clause while the older one is ISC. Developers upgrading to version 19.0.0 should note the peer dependency requirement and adjust their project configuration accordingly. The newer version provides a cleaner separation of concerns, focusing solely on providing the linting rules for Jest, allowing projects to manage their testing dependencies independently. The change of repository hints to a wider support of the library by jest team, which is beneficial for developers because they can rely in a stable and well supported library.
