Jasmine Core 5.0.0-alpha.0 Release Notes

Summary

This release primarily adds support for parallel execution via the jasmine package. Please see its release notes and the parallel documentation for more information. Additionally, this release cleans up a few outdated interfaces.

This is a pre-release for a major version. It contains breaking changes, and there may be further breaking changes between this release and the final 5.0.0 release.

Breaking changes

  • Use addEventListener in browsers rather than setting window.onerror

    This simplifies error handling in browsers, makes Jasmine's own integration tests easier to debug, and provides stack traces for more unhandled exceptions. However, some browsers will provide less error information when the error comes from a file:// URL. Additionally, Jasmine will no longer override existing onerror handlers, and setting window.onerror will no longer override Jasmine's global error handling. (Use jasmine.spyOnGlobalErrors instead.)

  • Made Env#execute async

  • Env#execute no longer takes a callback

  • The boot function exported by the core module returns the same object every time it's called.

  • Removed node_boot.js. Use the exported boot function instead.

Changes to supported environments

The following previously supported environments are no longer supported:

  • Node <16.14
  • Safari 14
  • Firefox 91

Although this release may still work in some of those environments, we no longer test against them and won't try to maintain compatibility with them in future releases.

New features

  • Support for parallel execution in Node.js using the jasmine package

Bug fixes

  • The global error handler is uninstalled at the end of env execution.

Supported environments

jasmine-core 5.0.0-alpha.0 has been tested in the following environments.

Environment Supported versions
Node 16.14+, 18
