Sinon.js is a popular JavaScript library providing spies, stubs, and mocks for unit testing. Version 10.0.1 represents a minor update from the preceding stable release, version 10.0.0. While both versions share the same core functionality and maintain the same BSD-3-Clause license, several dependencies have been updated. The key changes reside within the dependency tree. nise has been updated from version 4.1.0 to version 5.0.1, @sinonjs/samsam moves from 5.3.1 to 6.0.1, and @sinonjs/fake-timers shifts from 6.0.1 to 7.0.4. These dependency updates likely incorporate bug fixes, performance improvements, and potentially new features within those respective modules. Developers should consult the changelogs for nise, @sinonjs/samsam and @sinonjs/fake-timers to understand the precise nature of these changes and assess any potential impact on their existing test suites. The dist file also shows an increase of unpacked size of almost ~200kb which can hint that new features were possibly added in the updated dependencies. The release date for 10.0.1 is April 8th, 2021, while 10.0.0 was released on March 22nd, 2021, indicating a relatively short interval between releases, further suggesting that 10.0.1 is primarily a bugfix and dependency update release.
