Eslint-plugin-jest, a popular tool for linting Jest tests, released version 23.18.0, succeeding version 23.17.1. Both versions maintain identical core functionalities – enforcing best practices and consistent code style in Jest tests. They share the same dependencies, including @typescript-eslint/experimental-utils, and a comprehensive suite of development dependencies like jest, eslint, and various Babel-related packages for TypeScript support and code transformation. This consistent dependency structure ensures a stable and predictable development environment for contributors and users alike.
The key difference lies in the updated jest-runner-eslint dev dependency. Version 23.18.0 uses jest-runner-eslint "^0.10.0" while Version 23.17.1 uses jest-runner-eslint "^0.9.0". Also the unpacked size of the 23.18.0 is slightly bigger than unpacked size of the 23.17.1
For developers, this upgrade suggests potential improvements or bug fixes within the jest-runner-eslint integration for the newer version. If you were experiencing any issues related to linting during your Jest test runs, upgrading to 23.18.0 might resolve them. However, given the consistent dependency structure and core functionality, the upgrade is likely to be seamless with minimal disruption.
