Acceptance Criteria

Implementation Requirements

• Review and update the dev and prod dependencies in the following libraries:
  • driver
  • js-bson
  • legacy driver
  • mongo-client-encryption
  • kerberos
  • zstd
• Update the dev dependencies to latest available compatible versions
  • Update the major version if and ONLY if this can be done with minimal code changes
  • Do NOT update prettier, eslint, or any other code formatter major versions if it would result in a reformatting of the entire code base
  • ANY reformatting MUST be done in a separate pull request and should ONLY be done if the team agrees that it is an important improvement
  • If there is compelling reason to adopt a major dependency version that would require significant code changes or reformatting, file a separate ticket to triage with the team
• Update the prod dependencies to the latest safe and semver-compatible versions
  • If the current major version is no longer supported, file a separate ticket to address this
• Updating TS is NOT part of this ticket, file a separate ticket if an update is available and desirable

Testing Requirements

• All existing tests should continue to pass
