General info |
Buster.JS is a JavaScript test framework for node and browsers.Buster.JS is a new JavaScript testing framework. It does browser testing by automating test runs in actual browsers (think JsTestDriver), as well as Node.js testing. It has a bunch of great features. |
JBehave is a Behaviour-Driven Development testing framework for javaJBehave is a Behaviour Driven Development framework. It intends to provide an intuitive and accessible way for automated acceptance testing |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
YesBuster.Js is a xUnit style Test Framework |
No |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesIt does browser testing with browser automation, QUnit style static HTML page testing, testing in headless browsers and more front-end components and functionality |
YesYou can test front-end behaviour (scenarios) with JBehave |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesIt is a Node.js testing toolkit as well which means it can test back-end behaviour and functionality as well as run in a server environment |
JBehave tests scenarios and behaviours of components, it can test back-end behaviour |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
N/A |
YesYou have a few options for using fixtures in JBehave: you can run your steps before/after each scenario by using LifeCycle: you can use @BeforeStory and @AfterStory annotations or you can define a dummy scenario with your setup/teardown steps |
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 |
YesYou can define group fixtures with JBehave |
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) |
Buster.JS ships with Sinon.JS. every test in a test case has a sandbox associated with it, making it easy to mock and stub |
The best way to mock is to use third party libraries like Mockito, Jmock or Jmockit |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
