Code Review

This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, addresses a security vulnerability by upgrading several dependencies. While this is an important security fix, please be aware that the updates for gulp-sass and supertest are major version bumps that introduce breaking changes. Your current build and test scripts are incompatible with these new versions and will fail. I have provided detailed comments on the package.json file with instructions on the necessary code modifications in gulpfile.js and your test files to resolve these issues.

The update of gulp-sass from version 2.x to 5.x is a major breaking change that will cause your build to fail. Here's what you need to do to fix it:

1. Add sass as a dependency: gulp-sass v5 uses Dart Sass and requires it as a peer dependency. You need to install it:

   npm install sass --save-dev

2. Update gulpfile.js:
   • The way gulp-sass is initialized has changed. Update line 8 from var sass = require('gulp-sass'); to var sass = require('gulp-sass')(require('sass'));.
   • In the buildCSS task, the usage is outdated. You should update it to pipe directly to sass with error handling. Replace lines 95, 96, and 103 with a single .pipe(sass().on('error', sass.logError)) after sourcemaps.init().
   • In the buildCSSProduction task, you can leverage Dart Sass's built-in minification and remove the deprecated gulp-minify-css package. Update lines 114 and 116 to be a single .pipe(sass({ outputStyle: 'compressed' }).on('error', sass.logError)). You can then uninstall gulp-minify-css.

Without these changes, your CSS compilation tasks will fail.

Upgrading supertest from version 0.15.0 to 7.1.3 introduces significant breaking changes that will cause your server tests to fail.

In supertest v3+ (you are moving to v7), require('supertest') returns the request function directly, and supertest.agent is no longer available on the main exported object.

To fix your tests in tests/server/routes/members-only-test.js, you need to:

1. Change how you require supertest on line 8 from:

   var supertest = require('supertest');

   to:

   var request = require('supertest');

2. Update the usage of the supertest variable to request throughout the file. For example, on line 28, change:

   guestAgent = supertest.agent(app);

   to:

   guestAgent = request.agent(app);

This change needs to be applied to all places where supertest is used.
