Expect is a core assertion library used extensively within the Jest testing framework, providing a rich set of matchers for validating code behavior in JavaScript projects. Comparing version 28.0.1 with its predecessor, 28.0.0, reveals subtle yet important differences that developers should be aware of. While both versions share the same fundamental purpose – offering tools to express expectations about your code – the updates mostly revolve around dependency versions. Notably, version 28.0.1 includes updates to jest-util and jest-message-util (both at ^28.0.1) and @jest/expect-utils and jest-matcher-utils which were bumped from 28.0.0 to 28.0.1, potentially incorporating bug fixes, performance improvements, or new features within those utility packages. The dist section indicates a marginal increase in unpacked size in 28.0.1 (142726 bytes vs 142698 bytes), suggesting minor code additions or adjustments. Also, version 28.0.1 was released on April 26, 2022, whereas version 28.0.0 was released on April 25, 2022, so version 28.0.1 is clearly a patch of 28.0.0. For developers utilizing Expect directly or indirectly via Jest, upgrading to 28.0.1 is generally recommended to benefit from the latest refinements and ensure compatibility within the Jest ecosystem. Checking the changelogs of the updated dependencies would provide further insights.
