Released on December 6, 2025, jsonparamunit v0.0.8 is a maintenance update designed to ensure the library remains stable, secure, and fully compatible with the latest versions of its core dependencies.

What’s new

This release focuses on bringing the underlying ecosystem up to date. We have updated several key dependencies that power the library’s functionality, including:

  • Jackson Databind: Updated to the latest version to ensure robust JSON processing.
  • JUnit 5: Bumped the parameterized test support to stay aligned with the latest JUnit 5 features and fixes.
  • Core Utilities: Updated jsonassertify, lombok, and mockito to improve development stability and performance.
  • Build Infrastructure: Refreshed Maven plugins and GitHub Actions to streamline the build and CI/CD pipeline.

Why it matters

While this release doesn’t introduce new API features, maintenance updates are critical for the health of your project. By updating these dependencies, we provide:

  • Improved Stability: Leveraging the latest bug fixes from the Jackson and JUnit ecosystems.
  • Better Compatibility: Ensuring that jsonparamunit works seamlessly with the newest versions of Java 17+ and JUnit 5 environments.
  • Enhanced Security: Reducing the risk associated with outdated libraries by incorporating the latest upstream patches.

Getting Started

Because v0.0.8 contains no breaking API changes, it is a drop-in replacement for v0.0.7. You can upgrade your project by simply updating the version number in your dependency management file (e.g., pom.xml).

As always, we recommend verifying your test suite after updating dependencies to ensure continued compatibility with your specific environment.
