an earlier pull request in this repository attempted to address
this security alert related to the
xmldom
packageby updating the
msw
package from"msw": "^0.29.0"
to"msw": "^1.3.2"
;the rationale for that approach was based on this;
unfortunately,
that pull request broke the frontend sub-project;
correspondigly, that pull request was undone within the following pull request,
and more specifically via this commit;
in the time between "the earlier pull request" and now,
a version 2 of
msw
has become available,with version 1 still being supported;
I attempted to update from
"msw": "^0.29.0"
to version 2by following these instructions for resolving one of the frequent issues arising when updating from version 1 to version 2,
but failed to get things to work;
for convenience,
here are a few screenshots from that link:
the prospect of sneaking
a change of the testing framework used by the frontend sub-project
into this pull request
seemed so unsettling that I searched for more information on the matter,

in view of the following comment on that discussion:
I decided for this pull request to
update from
"msw": "^0.29.0"
to version 1
