Expect, a core component of the Jest testing framework, provides the expect function, crucial for writing assertions in your tests. Comparing versions 29.0.0 and 29.0.1 reveals subtle yet important changes for developers. Both versions share the same fundamental description: providing the assertion capabilities for Jest, with documentation readily available on Jest's official website.
A key difference lies in the dependency versions. Version 29.0.1 updates several dependencies including jest-util, jest-message-util, @jest/expect-utils, and jest-matcher-utils to their respective 29.0.1 versions, indicating bug fixes or performance improvements within these underlying utilities. jest-get-type is updated to version 29.0.0. Developers upgrading should be aware of potential minor changes introduced by these dependency updates, although the core expect API remains consistent. In the version 29.0.0 all the dependencies mentionated are the version 29.0.0
The updated package (29.0.1) is slightly smaller in unpacked size (142930 bytes compared to 161208 bytes) and has fewer files in the distribution (13 versus 21). Such differences often reflects optimized build process, removal of unnecessary assets, also bug fixes or changes in how the package is structured. It was released a day later then version 29.0.0 (2022-08-26 versus 2022-08-25). Developers should favor the latest version (29.0.1) for its potential improvements and bug fixes unless specific compatibility issues are encountered with the updated dependencies. Always refer to the Jest changelog for detailed information on the specific changes within these dependency updates.
