Version 8.0.2 Details

Sinon is a popular JavaScript library providing versatile tools for test spies, stubs, and mocks, crucial for effective unit testing. Comparing versions 8.0.2 and 8.0.1, developers will find subtle but important updates. The core functionality remains consistent, ensuring existing tests built around Sinon continue to function as expected. Examining the dependencies, version 8.0.2 updates @sinonjs/samsam from version 4.0.1 to 4.2.1, and nise from version 3.0.0 to 3.0.1. This signifies enhancements or bug fixes within these underlying modules, potentially improving the reliability or performance of Sinon's core features related to assertion and server mocking. While the developer dependencies predominantly remain stable across the versions, a key change is the substantial increase in the unpacked size of the package, from 1.89MB in 8.0.1 to 4.67MB in 8.0.2. This could indicate the inclusion of additional test files, examples, or documentation packaged within the release. Consider this when evaluating the package size impact on your project. Finally, Version 8.0.2 was released on December 30, 2019, a week after 8.0.1. Developers should consult the official changelog and commit history on the Sinon.JS GitHub repository for a comprehensive breakdown of specific changes, bug fixes and potential breaking changes to make the most informed upgrade decision.
