Sinon.js, a popular JavaScript library for creating test spies, stubs, and mocks, released version 12.0.1 shortly after version 12.0.0. Both versions share the same core dependencies, including diff, nise, supports-color, @sinonjs/samsam, @sinonjs/commons, and @sinonjs/fake-timers, ensuring consistent core functionality for developers relying on these modules. The development dependencies also remain identical, indicating a focus on maintaining the existing development workflow and tooling with no significant changes to the testing or build processes. This consistency is ideal for developers who have integrated Sinon.js into their projects, as upgrading involves minimal risk of breaking changes in the core mocking capabilities or the tools used to develop with it.
A notable difference between the two versions is the package size. Sinon 12.0.1 has a unpackedSize of 5111818 bytes and contains 52 files, while version 12.0.0 has a larger unpackedSize of 7815743 bytes with 53 files. This size reduction suggests that 12.0.1 includes improvements to the build, tooling or packaging process, potentially leading to faster download and installation times for developers, and a smaller footprint in their projects. Considering that the core dependencies and development tools remain the same in both versions suggests a focus on optimizing existing code and assets. This makes version 12.0.1 a worthwhile upgrade with the advantage of a lighter package and improved resource usage.
