防止 package.json 更新包

Question

I wanted to know if there is any clean way of preventing package.json file from updating to latest versions of the dependencies that it contains.

The reason I don't want them to update is because of I need to frequently run few scripts with certain libraries the project contains and if the libraries get updated to latest versions, then I may not be able to validate my tests if some additional transitive dependencies are present.

Please note: I am not using npm update in any case, but I do use npm install.

You can specify the exact version in your package.json file.
