Sinon, a popular JavaScript testing library offering spies, stubs, and mocks, released version 15.1.1 shortly after 15.1.0. Both versions share core functionality and dependencies, maintaining consistent support for diff, nise, supports-color, @sinonjs/samsam, @sinonjs/commons, and a suite of development tools. The key difference lies within the @sinonjs/fake-timers dependency. Version 15.1.1 utilizes @sinonjs/fake-timers at version 10.1.0, while the previous version 15.1.0 utilizes @sinonjs/fake-timers package at version 10.2.0.
For developers, this small version bump might indicate minor bug fixes or internal improvements within the fake timers module. It's advisable to review the changelog for @sinonjs/fake-timers between versions 10.2.0 and 10.1.0 to understand the specific changes impacting your tests. The sinon package itself didn't undergo significant alterations regarding its public API or primary features between these versions. Developers considering upgrading should prioritize checking compatibility with the updated @sinonjs/fake-timers and ensuring existing test suites continue to function as expected. This incremental update allows developers to continue leveraging sinon's powerful mocking capabilities with potentially enhanced stability and performance in its dependency management. Both releases continue to uphold the BSD-3-Clause license and maintain active development under Christian Johansen, reinforcing sinon as a reliable and well-supported testing solution.
