General info |
Behat is an open source Behavior-Driven Development framework for PHP.Behat uses the StoryBDD subtype of behaviour-driven development (the other subtype is SpecBDD); This means the tests we write with Behat look rather like stories than code. It is inspired by Ruby's Cucumber |
Green is a clean, colorful, fast Python test runnerThis is a test runner that has pretty printing on output that makes results easy to read and understand. Some of its features include: Tests running in independent processes (fast), low redundancy in output (clean), supports pretty printing that is the terminal output, makes good use of color when the terminal supports it (colorful) |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |

No |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesTo enable Behat to test a website, you need to add Mink and a browser emulator (selenium maybe, though slow) to the mix. Mink methods are the connector between Behat and an extensive list of available drivers, and they provide a consistent testing API. |
YesIt can test front-end components of the django framework |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesBehat can be used for Data Integrity Testing to verify that database operations are functioning properly |
YesIt can test server-side behaviours of web applications written with Python |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YesOne can use the 'Doctrinefixturesbundle' to create the required fixture loaders and load them in our Behat scenarios when required, using the 'BeforeScenario' hook. |
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. |
YesBehat allows for 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. |

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) |
By using third party libraries like Mock and Prophecy |
YesThrough the use of Python's mock library |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesYou can use tags to group features and scenarios together, independent of your file and directory structure |
