Codedeception vs NUnit comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Codedeception and NUnit?

	Codedeception https://codeception.com/	NUnit https://nunit.org/
Programming language	PHP	.NET
Category	Unit Testing, Acceptance Testing/Functional Testing	Unit Testing
General info	Codeception is a full-stack testing framework for PHP It is inspired by BDD and provides a way of writing acceptance, functional and even unit tests. It is powered by PHPUnit.	NUnit is an open-source unit testing framework for Microsoft .NET. NUnit was Initially ported from JUnit. Tests can be run from a console runner, within Visual Studio through a Test Adapter or through 3rd party runners. Tests can be run in parallel and has Strong support for data driven tests. Unit supports multiple platforms including .NET Core, Xamarin Mobile, Compact Framework and Silverlight.
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	No	Yes Nunit is one of many programs in the xUnit family
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes One 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)	Yes You can test front-end components with NUnit since it is a Unit testing framework the application is isolated into diverse modules which are tested independently
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes It supports back-end tests, by writing functionaltests one can be able to test server behaviour	Yes You can test back-end components with NUnit, it is a Unit testing framework hence the application is isolated into diverse modules which are tested independently
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes One can define a fixture and write the test with Codedeception, use the yii2-codedeceptionextention which will autoload fixtures for you	Yes NUnit contains the fixture methods SetUp to initialize your test environment and TearDown method to destroy a test environment
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.	Yes One can define group fixtures	Yes Group fixtures are available in NUnit
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	N/A
Licence Licence type governing the use and redistribution of the software	MIT License	MIT License
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)	Yes Codeception provides Codeception\Stub library for building mocks and stubs for tests	Yes You can create mock objects using the third party library moq
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes Codeception 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.	Yes You can group tests into suites with NUnit
