General info |
Cedar is a BDD-style testing for swift using Objective-CCedar is a BDD-style Objective-C/Swift testing framework that has an expressive matcher DSL and convenient test doubles (mocks). It provides better organizational facilities than the tools provided by XCTest/OCUnit In environments where C++ is available, it provides powerful built-in matchers, test doubles and fakes |
Rich testing framework for GoGocheck is a richer testing framework for Golang libraries and applications that includes checkers and assertions among many other features, it also works as an extension to the testing package and 'go test' |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
YesCedar is an xUnit style framework |
No |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesYou can test front-end components and behaviour with Cedar, its language is biased towards describing the behavior of your objects. |
YesYes, supports end-to-end testing so various front-end components can be tested |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesYou can test back-end components with a bias towards their expected behaviour. Cedar specs also allow you to nest contexts so that it is easier to understand how your object behaves in different scenarios |
YesYes end-to-end testing means that various back-end components and behaviour can be tested |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YesCedar has beforeEach and afterEach class methods which Cedar will look for on every class it loads. You can add these onto any class you compile into your specs and Cedar will run them |
YesFixtures are available with Gocheck either per suite and/or per setup and teardown |
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 |
YesGroup fixtures are available as a suite |
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) |
YesCedar contains inbuilt mock/test double functionality |
YesThrough third party libraries like gomock |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesCedar supports shared example groups. You can declare them in one of two ways: either inline with your spec declarations, or separately. |
YesWhen testing, developers can create suites of tests |
