Buster.JS vs PHPUnit comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Buster.JS and PHPUnit?

	Buster.JS https://busterjs.readthedocs.io	PHPUnit https://phpunit.de/
Programming language	JavaScript	PHP
Category	Unit Testing, Browser Automation	Unit Testing
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.	PHPUnit is a unit testing framework for the PHP programming language PHPUnit is a programmer-oriented testing framework and is an instance of the xUnit architecture for unit testing frameworks.
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	Yes Buster.Js is a xUnit style Test Framework	Yes It's an instance of the xUnit architecture for unit testing frameworks
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes It does browser testing with browser automation, QUnit style static HTML page testing, testing in headless browsers and more front-end components and functionality	Yes It can perform Unit tests and can test various front-end components and behaviours
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes It 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	Yes By performing unit tests on singular 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 By use of a setup code. The setup code consists of two Important template functions, the 'setUp()' function (called to create the objects to be tested) and 'tearDown()' function (called to cleanup the objects which you tested)
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 It does support 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)	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	Yes One of its main features is that PHPUnit comes with out of the box support for Mock objects
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups		Yes It allows grouping of tests and by using the @group annotation one can tag a test to belong to one or more groups
