Version 2.0.0 Details

Tape is a simple, yet powerful, test harness for Node.js and browsers that outputs TAP-formatted results. Comparing versions 2.0.0 and 1.1.2 reveals subtle but noteworthy changes. Both versions share the same core mission: providing a straightforward way to write and execute tests.

One key difference lies in their dependencies. Version 2.0.0 specifies "deep-equal":"~0.1.0", while version 1.1.2 relies on "deep-equal":"~0.0.0". While seemingly minor, this indicates a potential update to the deep comparison logic or a fix within the deep-equal package that version 2.0.0 explicitly takes advantage of.

More significantly, the 'devDependencies' show changes. While both utilize "tap":"~0.3.0" and "falafel":"~0.1.4" for development-time testing and static analysis, version 1.1.2 includes "concat-stream":"~1.5.1" which isn't present in version 2.0.0. This inclusion might suggest a change in how test results or code coverage are handled. Its removal can signal a refactoring or replacement with an alternative approach.

It's worth noting the substantial difference in release dates. Version 2.0.0 dates back to October 2013, while version 1.1.2 was released in March 2016. This large temporal gap implies numerous internal improvements, bug fixes, and potentially API enhancements that haven't been explicitly communicated through dependency changes. Developers should investigate any behavioral changes, especially those who upgraded from 2.0.0 to 1.1.2..
