8.1.0 / 2020-07-30

In this release, Mocha now builds its browser bundle with Rollup and Babel, which will provide the project's codebase more flexibility and consistency.

While we've been diligent about backwards compatibility, it's possible consumers of the browser bundle will encounter differences (other than an increase in the bundle size). If you do encounter an issue with the build, please report it here.

This release does not drop support for IE11.

Other community contributions came from @Devjeel, @Harsha509 and @sharath2106. Thank you to everyone who contributed to this release!

8.0.0 / 2020-06-10

In this major release, Mocha adds the ability to run tests in parallel. Better late than never! Please note the breaking changes detailed below.

Let's welcome @giltayar and @nicojs to the maintenance team!

💥 Breaking Changes

  • #4164: Mocha v8.0.0 now requires Node.js v10.12.0 or newer. Mocha no longer supports the Node.js v8.x line ("Carbon"), which entered End-of-Life at the end of 2019 (@UlisesGascon)

  • #4175: Having been deprecated with a warning since v7.0.0, mocha.opts is no longer supported (@juergba)

    WORKAROUND: Replace mocha.opts with a configuration file.

  • #4260: Remove enableTimeout() (this.enableTimeout()) from the context object (@craigtaub)

    WORKAROUND: Replace usage of this.enableTimeout(false) in your tests with this.timeout(0).

  • #4315: The spec option no longer supports a comma-delimited list of files (@juergba)

    WORKAROUND: Use an array instead (e.g., "spec": "foo.js,bar.js" becomes "spec": ["foo.js", "bar.js"]).

  • #4309: Drop support for Node.js v13.x line, which is now End-of-Life (@juergba)

  • #4282: --forbid-only will throw an error even if exclusive tests are avoided via --grep or other means (@arvidOtt)

  • #4223: The context object's skip() (this.skip()) in a "before all" (before()) hook will no longer execute subsequent sibling hooks, in addition to hooks in child suites (@juergba)

  • #4178: Remove previously soft-deprecated APIs (@wnghdcjfe):

    • Mocha.prototype.ignoreLeaks()
    • Mocha.prototype.useColors()
    • Mocha.prototype.useInlineDiffs()
    • Mocha.prototype.hideDiff()
