Version Details and Security Vulnerabilities

Midnight Smoker has been updated to version 3.0.0, offering improvements over the previous stable version 2.0.4. Both versions facilitate running smoke tests against packages as they would be published, ensuring quality and preventing unexpected issues upon release. The core dependencies remain consistent, including chalk, debug, execa, ora, pluralize, strict-event-emitter-types, which, and yargs, indicating a stable foundation for the tool's functionality.

Significant differences lie in the development dependencies, revealing updates to the tooling and testing environment. Version 3.0.0 sees upgrades in @commitlint/cli, @commitlint/config-conventional, @types/node, eslint, and prettier, amongst others. The Typescript version jumps from 5.0.4 to 5.1.6, suggesting enhanced type checking and modern language feature support. Notably, version 3.0.0 introduces @tsconfig/node16, indicating explicit configuration for Node.js 16, ensuring compatibility and utilizing the features of that runtime environment. The update in sinon from 15.1.0 to 15.2.0 reflects improvements in the stubbing and mocking library used for testing. Furthermore, the bump in mocha and markdownlint-cli2 versions implies updates to the testing framework and markdown linting, respectively. A developer considering upgrading should evaluate the impact of these upgraded development dependencies on their workflow, ensuring compatibility with their existing setup and taking advantage of any new features or performance improvements they offer. The updated release also appears to have a slight increase in unpacked size (58366 vs 53862) and file count (12 vs 11).
