Jest Circus, a test runner for Jest, saw a minor version update from 29.6.4 to 29.7.0, carrying several dependency bumps that developers should note. Both versions maintain the same core description, pointing to the Circus.ts type definitions within the Jest repository.
Key changes reside within the dependencies section. Notably, jest-each, jest-util, pretty-format, and jest-message-util jumped from version 29.6.3 to 29.7.0. Similarly, @jest/expect, jest-runtime, jest-snapshot, @jest/environment, @jest/test-result, and jest-matcher-utils moved from 29.6.4 to 29.7.0. This suggests improvements and bug fixes across various aspects of testing with Jest. The @jest/types dependency also updated, going from version 29.6.3 to 29.6.3. Developers should check Jest's changelog for details about these underlying package updates, as they might influence test behavior or introduce new features to utilize in their tests.
Both versions share the same development dependencies, including tools for testing and transpilation. The package size remains unchanged, with an unpacked size of 71976 bytes. Developers upgrading should focus on testing their existing test suites against the 29.7.0 version to ensure compatibility and leverage any new features from the updated dependencies. The release date difference highlights active development with the later version released about three weeks after the former.
