Concordion vs TestOOB comparison of testing frameworks
What are the differences between Concordion and TestOOB?

	Concordion https://concordion.org/	TestOOB https://pypi.org/project/testoob/
Programming language	Java	Python
Category		Unit Testing, unittest Extensions
General info	Concordion is a tool used to write and manage automated acceptance tests in Java based projects Concordion specifications are written in Markdown, HTML or Excel and then instrumented with special links, attributes or comments respectively. When the corresponding test fixture class is run, Concordion interprets the instrumentation to execute the test. Concordion lets you write them in normal language using paragraphs, tables and proper punctuation. This makes specification more natural to read and write, and helps everyone to understand and agree about what a feature is supposed to do.	Testoob is an advanced unit testing framework for Python. Testoob integrates with existing unittest test suites. It contains many features like: a filter which tests to run with regular expressions, output test results as XML/HTML/PDF, test skipping, color output on a terminal and more.
xUnit Set of frameworks originating from SUnit (Smalltalk's testing framework). They share similar structure and functionality.	No	No
Client-side Allows testing code execution on the client, such as a web browser	Yes You can specify tests for front-end components and functionality with concordion	Yes Testoob can test front-end features since it is a unit testing tool. One can write a test for each function that is on the client side
Server-side Allows testing the bahovior of a server-side code	Yes You can test server-side components and functionality with concordion.	Yes Testoob can test back-end functionality since it is a unit testing tool. One can write a test for each function in the back-end.
Fixtures Allows defining a fixed, specific states of data (fixtures) that are test-local. This ensures specific environment for a single test	Yes Concordion contains fixtures which correspond to a specific instrumentation within the code. That is when specifications are written they are instrumented with special links, attributes or comments which are then run with their corresponding fixtures	Yes TestOOB extends unittest and prepares fixtures by use of the 'setUp() function just like unittest
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 group fixtures in concordion	Yes The 'setUp()' function allows you to group your initialization functions
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	Apache License 2.0	Apache License 2.0
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 By use of third party libraries like mockito	Yes Mocks are available - testoob can acess library unittest.mock which is used for mocking
Grouping Allows organizing tests in groups	Yes One can group tests into suites	Yes One can build suites with testoob
