Artos vs Lighttest comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Artos and Lighttest?

	Artos https://www.theartos.com/	Lighttest http://asvd.github.io/lighttest
Programming language	Java	JavaScript
Category	Functional Testing, End-to-End Testing, Unit Testing	Unit Testing
General info	Artos is an opensource BDD testing framework for writing Unit, Intergration and Functional tests Artos includes pre-configured logging framework and extent reports, utilities to write flow for manual/semi-automated testing and supports BDD testing using cucumber scripts.	Lighttest is a JavaScript unit-testing library — it works both in browsers and under Node.js, supports flow control, and is focused on keeping the tests clear. Lighttest keeps tests clear by using a minimal syntax of the test cases, and the only testing function, lighttest.check(), is used to indicate a success or a failure. Any testing behaviour can be implemented using this function JavaScript natively meaning no additional testing API is required.
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	Yes It is a xUnit style framework	N/A
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes With Artos you can perform unit tests on front-end components	Yes Light Test works in the browser to test client side components and behaviours
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes You can unit test server side behaviours and functionalities by testing specific back-end classes and functions	Yes Light Test works with NodeJs to test back-end environments behaviours and components in short it can test any behaviour in the back-end as well as the front-end
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	N/A	N/A
Group fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data for a group of tests (group-fixtures). This ensures specific environment for a given group of tests.	N/A	N/A
Generators Supports data generators for tests. Data generators generate input data for test. The test is then run for each input data produced in this way.	N/A	N/A
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	MIT License	MIT License
Mocks Mocks are objects that simulate the behavior of real objects. Using mocks allows testing some part of the code in isolation (with other parts mocked when needed)	You can use a third party library like mockito	N/A
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes Artos allows creation of test suites and they are run by use of a test script	N/A
