Eslint-plugin-jest, a valuable tool for developers using Jest, provides ESLint rules tailored to enhance code quality and consistency in Jest test suites. Comparing versions 22.13.3 and 22.13.2 reveals subtle but potentially impactful changes for users. While both versions share a core set of dependencies and development dependencies essential for linting, testing, and formatting, one key difference lies in the direct dependencies block. Version 22.13.3 drops the explicit typescript dependency, which was present in 22.13.2, hinting at a possible shift in dependency management or internal build process optimization.
For developers, this means that upgrading might require verifying if their setup relies on the plugin bundling its own Typescript version; if so, they may need to ensure Typescript is available via other means. Both versions firmly depend on @typescript-eslint/experimental-utils, underscoring the plugin's focus on Typescript compatibility. The peerDependencies remain consistent, requiring ESLint version 5 or greater. The file counts and unpacked size in the dist property are also quite similar.
The release dates indicate a rapid iteration cycle; version 22.13.3 appeared shortly after 22.13.2 suggesting that the change was important and potentially a bug-fix. Developers should consider reviewing the changelog associated with this release to understand the specifics of this dependency change and any related bug fixes or enhancements before upgrading. This careful approach ensures a smooth transition and maintains optimal test suite quality when using eslint-plugin-jest.
