eslint-plugin-jest, a popular ESLint plugin for Jest, saw a minor version update from 22.14.0 to 22.14.1. Both versions maintain identical dependencies and devDependencies, suggesting the core linting rules and development environment remained largely unchanged. Key dependencies like @typescript-eslint/experimental-utils, eslint, jest, and supporting tools for Babel, TypeScript, and Prettier are consistent across both releases. This indicates a stable and well-maintained plugin with a focus on compatibility with leading JavaScript and TypeScript tooling.
The critical difference lies in the release date and potentially some internal fixes or improvements. Version 22.14.1 was released on July 31, 2019, a few days after 22.14.0's release on July 26, 2019. While the fileCount remains the same at 83, the unpackedSize saw a tiny increase from 173673 to 173706. This minuscule size difference might indicate minor tweaks, bug fixes or non-functional changes that don't affect the API or rule behavior.
For developers using eslint-plugin-jest, the update from 22.14.0 to 22.14.1 is likely a low-risk upgrade. Given the identical dependency structure, no breaking changes are anticipated. Upgrading is recommended to benefit from any potential bug fixes or performance improvements implemented between releases, ensuring the most stable and up-to-date Jest linting experience for your projects. Always refer to the project's changelog for the most detailed information on specific changes.
