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

	Artos https://www.theartos.com/	Spek https://www.spekframework.org/
Programming language	Java	Kotlin
Category	Functional Testing, End-to-End Testing, Unit Testing	Acceptance 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.	Spek is a specification framework for Kotlin Spek is a Kotlin-based Specification Testing framework for the JVM. It works as a JUnit 5 Test Engine meaning that we can easily plug it into any project that already uses JUnit 5 to run alongside any other tests that we might have.
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	Yes It is a xUnit style framework	No
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 Yes you can test front-end behaviour by writing specifications to test front-end functionality. Developers can also write unit tests for individual front-end components.
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 You can test back-end behaviour and componets by writing specifications to test back-end functionality and unit tests for individual back-end components
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	N/A	Yes Fixtures are available in spek through functions suchas beforeEachTest() and afterEachTest()
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	Yes spek has group fixtures available through the beforeGroup() and afterGroup() functions
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	Modified BSD 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	Yes You can use the third party library mockito-kotlin
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes Artos allows creation of test suites and they are run by use of a test script	Yes Tests are written using nested lambdas, each scope (level) can either be a group or a test
