  • Includes test runner, snapshot, and coverage modules
  • Depends on Vite and related utilities

Data access

  • None observed

Network

  • No network access observed

Widely used testing tool with no static security findings; standard dependency on Vite and test utilities introduces typical supply-chain considerations for a dev dependency.

How ShadowCanopy checks npm packages

ShadowCanopy blocks every dependency by default and only lets through what it can verify — against live malicious-package advisories, an AI behavior scan, and a byte-for-byte hash check. It protects installs across npm, PyPI, crates.io, pkg.go.dev, RubyGems, Maven Central, NuGet, Packagist, Hex, pub.dev, Swift Package Manager.
