What should I use instead of jest-environment-jsdom-sixteen?
jest-environment-jsdom-sixteen's functionality was absorbed into jest-environment-jsdom. jest-environment-jsdom is close enough to a drop-in replacement that most projects only change the dependency and the import.
How to migrate from jest-environment-jsdom-sixteen to jest-environment-jsdom
Remove the dependency and set testEnvironment: 'jsdom' in the Jest config; on Jest 28 and later also install jest-environment-jsdom, which is no longer bundled with Jest.
Why jest-environment-jsdom-sixteen is on this list
This package existed to give older Jest versions a jsdom 16 environment. It carries an npm notice saying Jest 26 ships jsdom 16 so there is no reason to use it, and its last release was 2.0.0 in April 2021. From Jest 28 onward the jsdom environment is published by the Jest team as jest-environment-jsdom.
The succession is settled: primary sources agree and the ecosystem has already moved.
jest-environment-jsdom-sixteen alternatives
The dataset lists no second option: jest-environment-jsdom is where the ecosystem went, and nothing else has meaningful adoption.

npx dead-deps --all --min-state unmaintained
Run that in the directory holding your lockfile. If jest-environment-jsdom-sixteen is anywhere in your tree — a direct dependency or buried under something else — it appears in the report with this verdict, this successor and the same evidence links, alongside anything else that has stopped moving. Nothing is uploaded; the scan reads your lockfile locally and queries public registry metadata.
Exit code 1 means something was flagged, which makes npx dead-deps --min-state deprecated usable as a CI gate. See how verdicts are produced.
