Version 27.4.3 Details

Jest version 27.4.3 is a minor release following 27.4.2 in the popular JavaScript testing framework. Both are described as providing "Delightful JavaScript Testing", underscoring their focus on developer experience. Key dependencies like jest-cli and @jest/core are updated to align with their respective version numbers, indicating coordinated versioning within the Jest ecosystem. import-local remains at version 3.0.2 in both, hinting that the changes don't necessitate an update to this dependency for local module resolution.

The peer dependency on node-notifier stays consistent, requiring versions 8.0.1, 9.0.0, or 10.0.0 suggesting no breaking API changes in that notification library impacting Jest. Both versions maintain the MIT License and point to the same GitHub repository, reinforcing the project's open-source nature and central development location.

From a distribution perspective, the file count (6) and unpacked size (4740) remain identical, suggesting the core codebase hasn't undergone significant structural alterations. The crucial difference lies in the releaseDate. Version 27.4.3 was released on December 1st, 2021 shortly after version 27.4.2 which came out on November 30th, 2021. This extremely fast update suggest either a bug in version 27.4.2 or a very important fix that justifies the release.

Developers should review the change logs between these releases to determine the specific bug fixes or minor enhancements included in 27.4.3, especially if they encountered any issues running Jest tests with version 27.4.2. It's advisable to upgrade to the latest patch version whenever possible to benefit from stability and reliability improvements.
