General info |
Codeception is a full-stack testing framework for PHPIt is inspired by BDD and provides a way of writing acceptance, functional and even unit tests. It is powered by PHPUnit. |
Fixie is a .NET test framework similar to NUnit and xUnitFixie allows test methods to be created and executed like other test frameworks, but takes a takes a conventions-based approach, which is a benefit as we do not need to use attributes to mark classes and methods as tests |
xUnit
Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality. |
No |
Yesfixie is an xUnit type testing framework |
Client-side
Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser |
YesOne is able to write acceptance tests which are used to look at functionality from a user's perspective. It is able to look at pages in browser (Chrome, Firefox or PhpBrowser) |
YesYou can unit test front-end components of youra pplications with fixie |
Server-side
Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code |
YesIt supports back-end tests, by writing functionaltests one can be able to test server behaviour |
YesYou can unit test back-end components of your applications with fixie |
Fixtures
Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test |
YesOne can define a fixture and write the test with Codedeception, use the yii2-codedeceptionextention which will autoload fixtures for you |
YesYes, fixie has fixture methods for setting up tests and at the end of tests to destroy them |
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. |
YesOne can define group fixtures |
N/A |
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) |
YesCodeception provides Codeception\Stub library for building mocks and stubs for tests |
N/A |
Grouping
Allows organizing tests in groups |
YesCodeception consists of three so-called “suites”: A “unit suite” for all unit tests, a “functional suite” for all functional tests, and an “acceptance suite” for all acceptance tests. |
YesYou can group tests into suites |
