Version 6.1.2 Details

Sinon is a popular JavaScript library providing invaluable tools for unit testing, specifically spies, stubs, and mocks. Versions 6.1.1 and 6.1.2 are closely related with minimal changes. Both versions share the same core dependencies: diff, nise, lolex, lodash.get, type-detect, supports-color, and @sinonjs/formatio, crucial for its core functionality. The development dependencies, encompassing tools like eslint, mocha, rollup, and others for building, linting, and testing the library itself, also remain consistent between the two point releases.

Developers upgrading from 6.1.1 to 6.1.2 can expect nearly identical behavior and API. The package.json data reveals the file count in the distribution archive is identical. A minor increase in unpacked size from 4474448 to 4475913 bytes suggests some internal tweaks, possibly bug fixes or minor performance enhancements, rather than significant feature additions. The release times also indicate that the release of 6.1.2 happened shortly after 6.1.1.

For those new to Sinon, these versions offer essential tools for isolating units of code, verifying interactions, and simulating complex dependencies. While the changes between these versions are small, staying on the latest point release within the 6.1.x series is generally recommended to benefit from any bug fixes or optimizations that may have been included. The library is licensed under the BSD-3-Clause license, providing flexibility for various projects.
