 - `[expect]` Compare DOM nodes even if there are multiple Node classes ([#8064](https://github.com/facebook/jest/pull/8064))
 - `[jest-worker]` `worker.getStdout()` can return `null` ([#8083](https://github.com/facebook/jest/pull/8083))
+- `[jest-worker]` Re-attach stdout and stderr from new processes/threads created after retries ([#8087](https://github.com/facebook/jest/pull/8087))
