Version Details and Security Vulnerabilities

Expect version 1.12.0 introduces several updates and upgrades compared to its predecessor, version 1.11.1, primarily focusing on the development environment and testing infrastructure. While the core dependencies remain consistent, including is-regexp, deep-equal, and object-inspect, the devDependencies showcase the significant changes. Most notably, karma, a test runner, sees an upgrade from version 0.12.28 to 0.13.3. This upgrade likely brings improved testing capabilities, potentially including better support for newer JavaScript features and enhanced reporting. karma-mocha also receives an update, going from 0.1.10 to 0.2.0, probably incorporating more recent Mocha features and compatibility fixes. karma-webpack jumps from 1.3.1 to 1.7.0, which might include improved webpack integration and better handling of bundled assets during testing. Also, karma-chrome-launcher moves from 0.1.7 to 0.2.0 and karma-sourcemap-loader from 0.3.2 to 0.3.5, suggesting more reliable browser testing and debugging capabilities. A new dependency karma-cli is removed from the new version. While babel, eslint, webpack, babel-core, babel-eslint and babel-loader are still present, some of them have different versions. Furthermore, version 1.12.0 was released on October 5, 2015, a week after 1.11.1 released on September 26, 2015. These updates suggest a focus on improving the developer experience through more robust and modern testing tools, ensuring the library's continued stability and reliability.
