Programming language	.NET	PHP
Category		Unit Testing
General info	Atata is a C# / .NET test automation framework for web Atata is an open source test framework that uses fluent object pattern. It consists of the following concepts: components (controls and page objects), attributes of the control search, settings attributes, triggers, verification attributes and methods	Kahlan is a full-featured BDD testing framework It is a full-featured BDD testing framework that embraces the KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid) design principle. Kahlan makes it possible to write unit tests using the 'describe-it' syntax and requires at least PHP 5.5
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	Yes You can use Atata with xUnit frameworks	No
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes Atata is based on selenium and is used for browser automation. You can test various front-end functionalities and behaviours	Yes Kahlan allows you to test front-end components and behaviour easily
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	No	Yes You can test individual back-end components using Kahlan
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test		Yes Fixtures can be defined by use of 'setUp()'method and cleaned using the 'tearDown()'method
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.		Yes You can write group fixtures
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

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)		Yes With Kahlan's stubbing system you are able to set stubs (like mocks) directly to your class methods (dynamic mocking)
