Version 1.17.0 Details

Expect version 1.17.0 introduces several updates and refinements compared to the preceding stable version, 1.16.0, enhancing the developer experience for writing better assertions. A key difference lies in the updated dependency list. Version 1.17.0 incorporates new dependencies such as "has":"^1.0.1" and "object-keys":"^1.0.9", and also updates "is-equal" to version "^1.5.1" and "object-inspect" to "^1.1.0", potentially bringing improved performance or bug fixes.

Developers migrating from 1.16.0 should be aware of these dependency changes, as they might influence the behavior of certain assertions or introduce subtle breaking changes. The development environment sees significant upgrades, too. While both versions share many of the same dev dependencies for testing and linting, version 1.17.0 uses newer versions of tools like eslint, babel-eslint, karma-chrome-launcher and karma-browserstack-launcher.

The upgrade to newer development dependencies shows a commitment to modern development practices and code quality. The update is also recent enough that upgrading shouldn't introduce breaking changes because of end-of-life dependencies. Expect continues to be distributed under the MIT license and maintained by Michael Jackson, reinforcing its stability and community support.
