Jasmine NPM 3.8 Release Notes

Summary

This release updates the jasmine-core dependency to 3.8.0. See the jasmine-core release notes for more information.

New features and bug fixes

Opt-in support for ES modules with .js extension and package type module
- All files are loaded using import if "jsLoader": "import" is set in the config file.
- Only supported on Node >= 12.17.0. Older versions have missing or broken support for importing .js files.
- Fixes #170
Allow the random seed reproduction command to be overridden
- Needed by jasmine-browser-runner, which uses the ConsoleReporter but needs to tell the user to run a different command.

Documentation updates

Created an initial set of API reference documentation

Internal notes

Specify files to include in the NPM package rather than files to exclude
CI matrix updates
- Added Node 16.
- Added Node 12.0, 12.16, and 12.17 to ensure coverage of versions that do and don't have good support for importing .js files.
- Removed Windows. We'll manually run the tests on Windows before each release, but we no longer have reliable access to a free Windows CI service.
Migrated from Travis to Circle CI

Supported environments

The jasmine NPM package has been tested on Node 12, 14, 16, and 18. See the jasmine-core release notes for supported browsers.
