| General info |
Atoum is a unit testing framework specific to the PHP language Atoum is similar to SimpleTest and is designed to be implemented rapidly, simplify test development and allow for writing reliable, readable, and clear unit tests |
Storyplayer is a full-stack testing framework Storyplayer follows a TDD testing approach and makes it possible to write end-to-end tests for an entire platform. It has support for creating and destroying test environments on demand |
|
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |

|
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
Yes Autom can perform unit tests on various front-end components and behaviours |
Yes By running a 'user story' which is a simple statement that describes one action, and who can perform that action then record of the conversations about this action, this is how you would test front-end functionality and components |
|
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
Yes Autom can perform unit tests on servers/back-end components |
Yes By writing a 'service story' which is a 'userstory' except it describes the behaviour of your back-end systems |
|
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
Yes By using the 'given()' method to setup your environment |
Yes Storyplayer has fixtures that can create and destroy test environments on demand |
|
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 By using the 'given()' method to setup your environments |
Yes It supports 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
|
Yes foreach(hostWithRole()) is a generator allows you to easily perform actions against all hosts in your test environment without having to hard-code the host IDs or hostnames into your story. |

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 By use of autom mocks which are decoupled and easier to maintain |
By using a library like mockery which intergrates well with storyplayer |
|
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
Yes By use of an extension for autom called blackfire which allows you to write blackfire test suites. |
Yes Storyplayer’s job is to execute a suite of functional tests |
