Ts-mocha is a valuable tool for developers seeking a streamlined approach to testing TypeScript code, allowing execution directly with ts-node, bypassing the need for pre-compilation. Comparing versions 10.1.0 and 10.0.0, several key differences emerge making the latest appealing to developers.
The most notable change is the updated peer dependency for mocha. Version 10.1.0 now officially supports mocha versions up to ^11.X.X, extending compatibility for users already leveraging the newest mocha features. Version 10.0.0 expresses compatibility only up to 10.X.X. This update ensures that ts-mocha remains current with the testing ecosystem.
Another significant update is in the devDependencies. Version 10.1.0 uses "mocha": "^11.0.1" while version "mocha": "8.2.0". Furthermore, the release date is a signal of how recent the version is. 10.1.0 was released on 2025-02-20T12:51:56.789Z whereas 10.0.0 was released on 2022-05-05T10:52:17.331Z.
For developers, this means upgrading to ts-mocha 10.1.0 offers better support for newer mocha releases, potentially aligning with their existing testing infrastructure. While both versions share core dependencies like ts-node and typescript, along with helpful developer tools such as tslint and husky, the improved mocha peer dependency and newer release date in 10.1.0 makes it the preferred choice for projects using or planning to use the latest mocha features. A small increase in unpacked size further shows the increased changes.
