Sinon.js, a popular JavaScript testing library providing spies, stubs, and mocks, saw a minor version update from 2.2.0 to 2.3.0. Both versions share the same core dependencies like diff, lolex, samsam, formatio, type-detect, text-encoding, path-to-regexp, and native-promise-only, aimed at facilitating advanced test case construction. Similarly, the development dependencies including mocha, eslint, rimraf, mochify, referee, mocaccino, phantomic, browserify, pre-commit, mochify-istanbul, phantomjs-prebuilt, eslint-config-sinon, and eslint-plugin-mocha remain consistent, suggesting a focus on stability and tooling.
The key difference lies in the release date. Version 2.3.0 was published on May 22, 2017, subsequent to version 2.2.0 released on May 2, 2017. While the core functionalities appear unchanged, this update potentially includes bug fixes, performance improvements, or minor API refinements that are not explicitly documented in the package metadata. Developers should consult the official Sinon.js changelog or release notes for a comprehensive understanding of the specific changes introduced in version 2.3.0. For new projects, using the latest stable version, 2.3.0, is generally recommended to benefit from the most recent improvements and stability enhancements. Existing projects should evaluate the changelog and test suite impact before upgrading to ensure compatibility and avoid unexpected regressions.
