Gherkin version 7.0.3 represents a minor update over the previous stable release, 7.0.2, in this widely used Gherkin parser for JavaScript. Both versions share identical core functionalities, dependencies, and development dependencies, suggesting that the changes introduced in 7.0.3 are likely refinements, bug fixes, or performance improvements rather than substantial feature additions. Developers already using 7.0.2 can likely upgrade to 7.0.3 with minimal disruption, as the API and overall behavior should largely remain consistent.
The key difference lies in the release date: version 7.0.3 was published on August 15, 2019, approximately 16 hours and 48 minutes after version 7.0.2, which was released on August 14, 2019. This short interval suggests that the newer version might address an urgent issue discovered shortly after the 7.0.2 release. Both versions list the same dependencies including "c21e" and "cucumber-messages", and share the same development dependencies showing the team uses tools such as TypeScript, Prettier, and TSLint. The "dist" object indicates identical "fileCount" and "unpackedSize", suggesting the code base is identical between the two. The update is more focused on stability rather than introducing potentially breaking changes. For projects requiring rock-solid Gherkin parsing, adopting the latest patch release, 7.0.3, is generally recommended to benefit from potential fixes.
