Attempt to resolve a security alert related to xmldom #50

Conversation

an earlier pull request in this repository attempted to address
this security alert related to the xmldom package
by 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 2
by 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,
which led me to this discussion;

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
