mocha 11.7.5 @types/mocha 10.0.10 compatibility

💡 Result:

mocha@11.7.5 and @types/mocha@10.0.10 are not version-matched: the DefinitelyTyped package is for Mocha v10.x, while your runtime is Mocha v11.x. Mocha does not ship its own TypeScript types, so you rely on @types/mocha for typings. [1][2][3][4]

What this means in practice:

  • Runtime: Mocha 11.7.5 (released 2025-11-04). [1]
  • Types: @types/mocha latest is 10.0.10 (published 2024-11-20). [2]
  • DefinitelyTyped tracking flags @types/mocha@10.0 as out of date vs current Mocha (11.x). [3]

Recommendation: For guaranteed correctness, use a Mocha 10.x runtime with @types/mocha@10.0.10, or be prepared for missing/incorrect typings when using Mocha 11.x until @types/mocha is updated to an 11.x major. [2][3]


VS Code test harness bumps are good; update Mocha type definitions.

The @vscode/test-* package bumps have no breaking changes and are safe to merge. However, mocha@11.7.5 paired with @types/mocha@10.0.10 is a version mismatch—the types target Mocha 10.x. Either downgrade mocha to 10.x or upgrade @types/mocha to target 11.x (when available).
