Expect, a core component of the Jest testing framework, has been updated from version 29.3.1 to 29.4.0. Both versions provide the expect function, essential for writing assertions in unit tests. Developers leverage expect to verify that their code behaves as intended. Key dependencies like jest-util, jest-get-type, jest-message-util, @jest/expect-utils, and jest-matcher-utils have been bumped to the latest minor versions, aligning with the overall Jest ecosystem. While these updates often include bug fixes, performance improvements, and new features within the matchers themselves, the core functionality remains consistent. The update introduces a changed devDependencies, with @tsd/typescript moving from ~4.8.2 to ^4.9.0, and @jest/test-utils moving from ^29.3.1 to ^29.4.0. The updated version include also an increased unpackedSize in the dist going from 142671 to 270434 and an additional file in the package. Developers should remain updated to the latest minor patch for potential bug fixes. Both versions maintain the MIT license and reside within the Facebook's Jest repository. The releaseDate differs, indicating the freshness of version 29.4.0 released in January 2023, compared to the older November 2022 release of 29.3.1.
